You need a "bulk renamer" to do this.

I personally use ABetterFinderRename, but there are cheaper and some that are free. ABFR has a free trial.

Renamer4Mac is cheap. Check the App Store too.

I like Renamer4Mac. Once you learn it, it's a great tool. I tried ABFR and found it to be just as good. What I like about both is the ability to set multiple rules to renames. I've got about a dozen Windows files renamers that can't seem to do that.
