There are over 90,000 of these text files that I'd like to put in a single directory as person_name_common_file.txt
It's a very bad idea to put 90,000 files in one directory. Creating or deleting files inside that folder will become very slow.
What is your actual goal here? I don't mean "moving the files". Why are you moving the files? If we can find a way to accomplish your ask without dumping 90,000 files in one directory you'll be much better off.

dh_installemacsen
DH_INSTALLEMACSEN(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLEMACSEN(1)
NAME
dh_installemacsen - register an Emacs add on package
SYNOPSIS
dh_installemacsen [debhelperoptions] [-n] [--priority=n] [--flavor=foo]
DESCRIPTION
dh_installemacsen is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing files used by the Debian emacsen-common package into package
build directories.
It also automatically generates the preinst postinst and prerm commands needed to register a package as an Emacs add on package. The
commands are added to the maintainer scripts by dh_installdeb. See dh_installdeb(1) for an explanation of how this works.
FILES
debian/package.emacsen-compat
Installed into usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/compat/package in the package build directory.
debian/package.emacsen-install
Installed into usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/package in the package build directory.
debian/package.emacsen-remove
Installed into usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/remove/package in the package build directory.
debian/package.emacsen-startup
Installed into etc/emacs/site-start.d/50package.el in the package build directory. Use --priority to use a different priority than 50.
OPTIONS
-n, --no-scripts
Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts.
--priority=n
Sets the priority number of a site-start.d file. Default is 50.
--flavor=foo
Sets the flavor a site-start.d file will be installed in. Default is emacs, alternatives include xemacs and emacs20.
NOTES
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple
instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
SEE ALSO
debhelper(7) "usr/share/doc/emacsen-common/debian-emacs-policy.gz"
This program is a part of debhelper.
