SharePoint: Indexed Columns

[LegacyPulsar]

Hi,

 

I'm looking to migrate some data to SharePoint but am aware that there is a 5,000 item indexing issue within sites. This can be avoided by creating Indexed Columns, and while I completely get the general principle behind them, I have the following questio which I'm hoping you can help me with:

 

 

• The columns that people are most likely to search by are going to be 'name', 'created' and 'modified', therefore these need indexing in order to avoid the 5000 item list view problem. However, when I go to index those columns I can do 'created' and 'modified' without issue, but I can't do the 'name' column. Sharepoint talks about indexing some columns automatically in the modern view when you sort by them, but I can't see anything online that talks about the 'name' column and if it is automatically indexed but never listed.
  

 

Is it possible to index this column? Am I missing something? Any tips or advice here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
