B-Rename

B-Rename lists compatibility with a broad range of Blender releases, from 2.8 all the way through 4.2, along with the versions in between such as 3.0, 3.3 and 4.0. That span covers both long-standing projects on older builds and setups running the most recent releases noted here. If you work across several Blender versions, that compatibility list means the addon covers each of them, so the same renaming tool applies whether a project sits on an older build or a current one.

B-Rename is not limited to meshes. It can rename objects of any type, including curves, lights, cameras and bones, so more than just the geometry can be renamed with it. Its main focus is bake preparation, where meshes often need suffixes such as _hipoly and _lopoly, but the same renaming applies across the other object types listed. It can also append the names of collections to object names as a suffix, tying the naming to how objects are grouped.

B-Rename can append the names of the collections an object belongs to onto the object's own name, adding them as a suffix. That means the grouping structure you already have in the scene can feed directly into the object names, so the naming reflects how objects are organized into collections. Combined with its focus on bake preparation, this suffix behaviour helps set up the hipoly and lopoly naming that baking and texturing workflows rely on. The addon ships with documentation covering how it works.

B-Rename is listed as free here in this catalog, so you can add it without a purchase from this page. Licensing and any commercial terms can change over time, so the developer's page from CGjazziQ is the place to confirm the current details before you rely on them. The addon itself is released under the GPL license, which governs how the code can be used and redistributed. For the latest word on pricing and terms, check with the developer directly.
