Better way of guessing template file names?

I'm finding that I waste a lot of time researching and guessing through trial-and-error what the name of a template needs to be for a given region, node, or block. Is there some easy short cut to empirically discovering this information? For example is there a Drupal function I could stick in block.tpl.php like "print_desired_template_name()" that would dump the name of the block template it's looking for? Drupal clearly knows what name it's looking for, so I bet there's some way to have it print that info and same myself hours of wasted time. Anyone?

How to change number "reads" to say "views"?

Under each blog post on our Drupal 7.x site, it indicates the number of views with the strangely ungrammatical word "reads" - for example "200 reads" to indicate that the node has been viewed 200 times. I assume this was just a case of a developer for whom English is not their first language. Trouble is I can't figure where to edit the string in the Drupal admin to say "views" instead of "reads". Any hints?

how to have less cryptic URLs?

I've been asked to do some maintenance on a Drupal 7.x based website and I'm trying understand how to improve the appearance of URLs. The website in question has a blog which is found at a URL ending in /blog and it shows a series posts. When you click on one of the posts, the URL changes to /node/1234 (or some other meaningless to humans URL). I've been asked to fix this so that it works more like a wordpress site where the URL of an individual post would make sense to a casual user - something like /blog/title-of-blog-post
