It is not possible to get the filename from the Image/Icon object. What you can do is add a string key to the images in ImageList and associate the ListViewItem with the image key instead of the image index.

Read the ImageIndex or ImageKey property of the item.

Set the ImageKey string property instead of the ImageIndex integer property. This can be done with the ListViewItemCollection.Add method, with the ListViewItem constructor, or with the ImageKey property of a ListViewItem instance.
