Laravel 5.1 file upload unique name - php

Question

My controller code where i store the file name into a database table and also moving the file to a folder.
The issue is that i am storing the original name of a file in database table, in contrast i am moving files with uniqueid() and time() . It will arise issues in future. because in database table file name and moved file are with different names.
What i want is to store the file name into database table and move the file to folder with with uniqueid() and time().
Code :
if(Input::hasFile('profile_pic')){
$pic = Input::file('profile_pic');
$mobile->photo1 = $pic[0]->getClientOriginalName();
$mobile->photo2 = $pic[1]->getClientOriginalName();
$mobile->photo3 = $pic[2]->getClientOriginalName();
$mobile->photo4 = $pic[3]->getClientOriginalName();
$mobile->photo5 = $pic[4]->getClientOriginalName();
foreach ($pic as $k=>$file){
if(!empty($file)){
$file->move(public_path() . '/uploads/', time() . uniqid() . '-' . $k . '-laptop');
}
}
}

You will need to store the destination path into a variable and then reuse it to move the file and to store its value in the database
if(Input::hasFile('profile_pic')){
$pic = Input::file('profile_pic');
$mobile->photo1 = $pic[0]->getClientOriginalName();
$mobile->photo2 = $pic[1]->getClientOriginalName();
$mobile->photo3 = $pic[2]->getClientOriginalName();
$mobile->photo4 = $pic[3]->getClientOriginalName();
$mobile->photo5 = $pic[4]->getClientOriginalName();
foreach ($pic as $k=>$file){
if(!empty($file)){
$destinationPath = public_path() . '/uploads/', time() . uniqid() . '-' . $k . '-laptop';
$file->move($destinationPath);
// and you may store the path here to the database
// like yourObject->filePath = $destinationPath;
// yourObject->save();
}
}
}
