There is no indication of the platform involved. On UNIX one can set an environment variable in a shell script
EXPORT_DATE= `date + "%d%m%y"`
export EXPORT_DATE

and then use that variable in the Oracle export command's file directive. For instance,  

$ORACLE_HOME/BIN/exp file=<name>$EXPORT_DATE.dmp.

The above does not include the century. There is a format marker for centuries, but it does not seem to work on our machines.

I'm not sure what you want for <name>. In other words how does it vary from export to export, and are these variations in any order or completely random.
