Answer

If I'm understanding the question, then this will work for an interactive command prompt:

for /d %D IN (c:\temp\folder1\*.*) do ren "%D" "%~nxDWORD"

If you are running this inside a batch file, then you will need to double each of the percent signs:

for /d %%D IN (c:\temp\folder1\*.*) do ren "%%D" "%%~nxDWORD"

The /d option tells for to only look at directories. The ~nxD modifier tells it to only print the filename and extension of D rather than the full path. See FOR /? for more information on the syntax of the modifiers.

Before

c:\temp\folder1>dir c:\temp\folder1
 Directory of c:\temp\folder1
          folder with space
          folder.dotted
          folder2
          folder3
          folderi

Command

c:\temp\folder1>for /d %D IN (c:\temp\folder1\*.*) do ren "%D" "%~nxDWORD"
c:\temp\folder1>ren "c:\temp\folder1\folder with space" "folder with spaceWORD"
c:\temp\folder1>ren "c:\temp\folder1\folder.dotted" "folder.dottedWORD"
c:\temp\folder1>ren "c:\temp\folder1\folder2" "folder2WORD"
c:\temp\folder1>ren "c:\temp\folder1\folder3" "folder3WORD"
c:\temp\folder1>ren "c:\temp\folder1\folderi" "folderiWORD"

Results

c:\temp\folder1>dir
 Directory of c:\temp\folder1
          folder with spaceWORD
          folder.dottedWORD
          folder2WORD
          folder3WORD
          folderiWORD
