If you're using Lightroom, you can't use a batch rename routine outside Lightroom unless you want to initiate a hell of a lot of clumsy and easy-to-mess-up cleanup work afterwards in Lightroom.
I gave precise instructions for how Larry can rename his files as desired using Lightroom's built-in renaming function. Nearly all of Lightroom's functions can be applied to any number of images individually or all at the same time. And nearly all of Lightroom's functions can be made into presets (or templates) for re-use whenever you you want.
