Reported by Javier:

Currently LilyPond allows to set the name of Midi files only for book blocks, using boookOutputSuffix or bookOutputName.
Javier is asking to add a similar feature for the \score block.
Discussed on lilypond-user:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2013-02/msg00028.html
Here's the feature request:
Requesting adding the ability to state a filename for midi output from within
score's midi block (or other score-specific block).
\book{
\bookpart{
...some markup
\score{
.....music for ScoreOne
\layout{}
\midi{ \set midifilename = "chap1-piece-one" }
}
...more markup
\score{
.....music for ScoreTwo
\layout{}
\midi{ \set midifilename = "chap1-piece-two" }
}
}
\bookpart{
...more markup
\score{
.....music for ScoreThree
\layout{}
\midi{ \set midifilename = "chap2-piece-one" }
}
...more markup
\score{
.....music for ScoreTwo
\layout{}
\midi{ \set midifilename = "chap2-piece-two" }
}
}
}
Allows one to build a single book.ly file (collection of scores) that produces
a single "book.pdf" output, as well as individual midi files with user-
selected names significant to their content/context (i.e. chapter number,
composer, opus, etc.).

The fix for issue 2343 added the ability to change the overall output file name and output file suffix via properties in the \paper block. It should be possible to write a patch to generate midi file names and suffixes as in the following example:
% In source file mymusic.ly
\book {
\paper {
output-file="first-file"
}
\bookpart{
%...some markup
\score{
.....music for ScoreOne
\layout{}
\midi{ output-file = "movement-one" }
}
%...more markup
\score{
% .....music for ScoreTwo
\layout{}
\midi{ output-file = "movement-two" }
}
}
% files generated:
% first-file.pdf
% movement-one.midi
% movement-two.midi
%
}
\book {
% No output-file specified
\bookpart{
%...some markup
\score{
.....music for ScoreOne
\layout{}
\midi{ output-suffix = "movement-three" }
}
%...more markup
\score{
% .....music for ScoreTwo
\layout{}
\midi{ output-suffix = "movement-four" }
}
}
% files generated:
% mymusic.pdf
% mymusic-movement-three.midi
% mymusic-movement-four.midi
%
}
\book {
\paper {
output-file="third-file"
}
\bookpart {
\score {
% music for score
\layout {}
\midi {}
}
\score {
% music for score
\layout {}
\midi {}
}
}
}
% third-file.pdf - Inherited from \book or \bookpart output-file property
% third-file-1.midi - suffix defaulted from number of midi files generated in
% current \book or \bookpart block
% third-file-2.midi - suffix defaulted from number of midi files generated in
% current \book or \bookpart block
%
\bookpart {
\score {
% music for score
\layout {}
\midi {
output-suffix="fifth-movement"
}
}
\score {
% music for score
\layout {}
\midi {
output-suffix="sixth-movement"
}
}
}
}
% third-file.pdf - Inherited from \book or \bookpart output-file property
% third-file-fifth-movement.midi - suffix specified in \midi block
% third-file-sixth-movement.midi - suffix specified in \midi block
%
}
