don't know if this will help, but you may be able to correct the names through command prompt. it will display the name as seen in windows as well as the command prompt name (they're different a lot of the time).

I know this doesn't help but the filenames, combined, look like a broken apart incomplete Markup Language like XML or HTML. Notice the opening and closing tags? ie: <> and </>

Thats the gamecube save folder, & the files you have in that folder combined come to 10.3GB... What ever those file are, Im 99.9% sure they're not a game saves.

Back the folder up onto your PC, Delete it from SD & try Nintendont on your Wii U.

Backup everything on your SD card EXCEPT that save folder to your PC. Format the SD card again with Fat32 32k/64k, Then copy everything back. Also make sure you have the latest Nintendont boot.dol from its thread in this section https://gbatemp.net/threads/nintendont.349258/

Looks like something got corrupted. And save files should not be that big, each file is over 1GB in size. Very strange.

I think it may be an SD Card problem. But you could just try to backup everything on your SD Card but your Saves folder, Format the SD Card again, then restore the backup, and create a new Saves folder.

Here is what my Saves folder looks like:
