There are couple of way to rename multiple files.
From http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/1136/batch-renaming-files
example we have files
image0001.png
image0002.png
image0003.png
...
And we would like to rename it to
0001.png
0002.png
0003.png
...
with for loop
this works with linux and mac without installing anything

With ZSH
This is my favorite way since I’m using ZSH and oh-my-zsh. Check it now, it’s awesome

or let zsh automatically define $1, $2 etc

Using your editor
for more complex operation, sometimes it easier to rename the file on your editor.
there is qmv
from renameutils
$ qmv *.png
it will open editor with 2 columns, you can edit the right size rename that file
