You can customize the created note path in:

  -- Optional, customize how note file names are generated given the ID, target directory, and title.
  ---@param spec { id: string, dir: obsidian.Path, title: string|? }
  ---@return string|obsidian.Path The full path to the new note.
  note_path_func = function(spec)
    -- This is equivalent to the default behavior.
    local path = spec.dir / tostring(spec.id)
    return path:with_suffix(".md")
  end,

To achieve what you want, add this in the configs:

  -- Optional, customize how note file names are generated given the ID, target directory, and title.
  ---@param spec { id: string, dir: obsidian.Path, title: string|? }
  ---@return string|obsidian.Path The full path to the new note.
  note_path_func = function(spec)
    local path = spec.dir / tostring(spec.title)
    return path:with_suffix(".md")
  end,

Note: This will changes just the filename not the id, the id by default will be timestamp-####, to change it check: Random ID as note name instead of the actual note name · Issue #756 · epwalsh/obsidian.nvim · GitHub.
