Just add the name of the language between the movie name and the extension:
Just like:
Movie: [Name].avi
English Subtitles:[Name].en.srt
French Subtitles: [Name].fr.srt
Spanish Subtitles: [Name].es.srt

What if there's more than one file for the same language? E.g., multiple translations.

I believe it should work fine if you just append numbers as well, ie: [Name}.en1.srt
