Add-on Copy Object Name to Data
Copy Object Name to Data

A simple operator to copy object names to object data.
Add-on by Xury46

This adds a simple operator to copy object names to object data. It will appear in the right-click context menu in the Outliner.

Often, when naming objects (the orange part) it is helpful to give the data (the green part) a matching name. This add-on makes this task much easier.

It's okay, struggles with duplicated meshes and an inverse option would be nice

Added the inverse option in version 1.1.1. :)

There's not a lot I can do about the duplicate meshes situation, every data block within a specific type (object, mesh) must have a unique name, so the add-on just tries to rename them in order, and subsequent objects will get a .001, .002, etc...

Simple, yet super useful. One idea: it would be awesome to have a feature which does the opposite too (data name to object name)

Added the opposite option in version 1.1.1. :)
