Ordinarily the first few words will be suggested as the filename provided
the Title field of the document properties (File | Properties) is blank. If
the template has text in the Title field, this will be replicated in the
document.

I was using a template that had something in the title
field, and when I removed that, then everything was OK.
Thanks for the suggestion I really appreciate it.

This is very common with templates inherited from earlier versions, where
what is now the Title field was used as a description of the template (which
you can now put in the Description field). The description was all you had
to go by in the File New dialog--there was no preview picture.
