    If the Stream is actually a FileStream, then this may be available by casting to FileStream and accessing the .Name property:

    Stream stream = ...
    FileStream fs = stream as FileStream;
    if(fs != null) Console.WriteLine(fs.Name);
    

    However, in the general case: no, this is not available. A byte[] certainly has no concept of a filename, nor do most other types of streams. Likewise, a FileStream base-stream that is being wrapped by other streams (compression, encryption, buffering, etc) will not expose such information, despite the underlying stream (several layers down) being a file.

    I would handle the filename separately.
