BulkRename has both a GUI and a command line interface for renaming groups of files. Summary of features (from website):

  • Rename multiple files
  • Add, replace, and insert text into file names
  • Convert case, add numbers, remove or change file extensions
  • Change image EXIF meta data
  • Rename MP3 file ID3 tags

If you want something built-in, you can select all the files you want to rename and then press F2 and rename the first one. The files take the same name, but with a number suffix.

  • Note: it doesn't use the file creation or modification to order the files, it seems to sort them based on the original file names.
