Have anyone ever heard in Excel, saving a document and instead of overwriting it, it's automatically incrementing the file name?

I am choosing Save, but Excel seems to be doing a Save As.

I don't think it's a read-only file, as I assume that would prompt me for a Save As name?

Excel (Office X for Mac) shows this set of instructions for
always saving a backup, which sounds like your situation.
1. On the File menu, click Save As.
2. Click Options.
3. Select the Always create backup check box.
4. Click OK, and then click Save.
