Easier searching notes with same name

I often make "index" files at the root of busy folders, that link to other notes. However, I have to name files as in the first attached screenshot: "<project> index" as the cmd+j fuzzy searcher would otherwise just show me several "Index" files of the same name. Having a "path" line below the results might be useful - similar to how sublime text or vs code does this (see screenshot) Cheers!

I would suggest that searching through a large repo of notes is not very useful as it stands. I have folders for each client. There is a "Status" note in each folder that keeps the long running history of conversations/etc. If I search for "Status", in the results list I have no idea what I'm clicking or where I'll be taken to. It would be great to prefix each result with a folder. Further, including the last modification date is super helpful in other scenarios. Attached is my search for status. Also attached is how Apple Notes does search results.

This is a great idea! It's always helpful to have a bit more context appear around search results.
