For me this works with a few versions of GNU Emacs:
(setq desktop-dirname (format "%sPDesktop-%d" user-emacs-directory
ETyp))
I have in ~/.emacs.d
drwxrwxr-x 7 pete 238 10 Aug 23:42 PDesktop-20
drwxrwxr-x 7 pete 238 5 Sep 11:32 PDesktop-21
drwxrwxr-x 18 pete 612 15 Nov 00:38 PDesktop-22
drwxrwxr-x 20 pete 680 15 Nov 00:45 PDesktop-23
