In Linux there are multiple ways to rename files and folders in batch but from command-line it can be difficult for some users. Lets checkout some useful rename utilities that are available for Linux.
1: PyRenamer
PyRenamer lets you rename files and folders in batch using patterns, substitutions, search and replace, insert text, delete text, append text to file name, or lets you rename files individually. You can also rename images using their EXIF tags and music using their internal tags. It is free Gnome application and released under GNU General Public License.
