This is a free program and just amazing.

Also there is a file splitter and merger, useful as well.

Dear Grant,

There is a program called "A better finder rename" that is very useful for
renaming files. Just google the name of the program to find the site to
download. It costs ~$20, but works very well on both macs and pcs.

Best,

Kyle
