If you want to forsake the command line, krename is great for this
kind of thing. From the website:

What is KRename ?
Rename is a powerful batch renamer for KDE. It allows you to easily
rename hundreds or even more files in one go. The filenames can be
created by parts of the original filename, numbering the files or
accessing hundreds of informations about the file, like creation date
or Exif informations of an image.
