    First, build a string that contains the current date:

    $backupName = $("Backup-{0}" -f [DateTime]::Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd"))

    Then call RedGate and use the date string as a parameter:

    ./RedGate.SQLAzureBackupCommandLine.exe /as: AzureServerNAME /ad: AzureDatabaseName /au:AzureUserName /ap:AzurePassword /cc /s /ls:. /ld:$backupName /dl /v /ba

    Ed: Copypaste/markup messed with brackets and colons, fixed ’em.
