As Mike mentioned, Powershell is useful for this type of stuff. I use WMI: (gwmi -cn <primaryservername> -Namespace root/sms/site_<sitecode> -class sms_collection).name
This will get you a list of all collection names. You can use a filter or a select-where to check for an individual name.

I went to create a device collection and it says it already exists, yet I can't find it in any of my folders. I can't seem to find a way to search by name, other than searching against my present view.
