I did this on another server and can't remember the exact details, but it
went something like this:
1) In SQLPlus create a rename.sql file with:
Spool rename_export.bat
select 'HOST REN export_file_name
export_file_name_'||to_char(sysdate,'MMDDYYYY')
FROM DUAL;
spool off;
2) In your script have two commands:
sqlplus user/password start rename.sql
call rename_export.bat
