Is there a VS Code shortcut to copy the name of a file to the clipboard from the explorer view?

Question

I often need to insert the name of a file from the explorer view in VS Code into a code file. Right now I right-click, choose "rename" from right-click context menu, double-click the file name, and then choose "copy" from the right-click context menu to copy it to the clipboard.

Is there an easier way to do this?
