Well, I suppose you *could* do e.g.

source=("${_uripath1}/0001-PATCH.patch"
        "${_uripath2}/0002-PATCH.patch"
        "${_uripath3}/0003-PATCH.patch")

newsource=()
for _src in "${source[@]}"; do
    _file="${_src##*//}"
    _file="${_file//\//_}"
    newsource+=("$_file::$_src")
done
source=("${newsource[@]}")

But I don't think it is usually worth attempting to automate this. It's
a lot easier in basically every respect to just bite the bullet and
rename them manually. Or rely on the order of the source array itself.

TBH I am still not entirely sure what you are trying to accomplish.
