Looking for help with automating the following:
I have data in cells A1:A10 and I'd like to name each cell in A1:A10.
I'd like to name each cell with the text that I have in the contents of cells B1:B10 and also add a prefix to each. For example:
In B1:B10 I have
joe.1999
joe.2000
joe.2001
....
joe.2009
I want the cells in A1.A10 to be named with the text in the adjacent B column row and also affix "boy." to each so the names in A1:A10 now read boy.joe.1999, boy.joe.2000, etc.
Would love any help on a script for this.
Thanks!

Can't you just overwrite A1 with ="boy."&B1 and copy down to A10?

I don't think so - I don't want to fill the cells - I want to name them.
