Dired can rename files matched by a regexp, and use \N in the
replacement to insert the string matched by the N-th group of the
regexp, and there are also many other file transformations, see (info
"(emacs) Transforming File Names").
Or even better: you can make a dired buffer writable and just edit what
you are seeing there, i.e., filenames, and permissions, see (info
"(emacs) Wdired"). Of course, you can also use keyboard macros when
doing so, see (info "(emacs) Keyboard Macros").
