Renaming multiple columns in multiple tables

I have circa 25 tables in my model. None of them have dependencies or anything (joins etc.). Each of them have 215 columns. The headers in all columns are differently typed, some with underscores, some with dots and other punctuation. I want to rename all columns of all these tables as per a standard list etc. What is the best way to achieve this please? Thanks!

Would suggest using TMDL so you could bulk replace via regex or simple searches for text
