Usually the patch name suggests what the patch is for. For example, I would not expect a patch named "icon-theme-rearrange-fix" to contain something related to automake issues.
Usually, and should be, but not always. It's also possible to not have the name related to the patch. For example, "kde3-yeargh.patch" might just be named in frustration, but not to what it's fixing (unless it's adding pirate translations to kde, in which case a better name would be "kde3-pirate-translations", but that'd be a useless patch anyway ;-) ).
