One way would be to import the intended sheet name into the first cell of 
each sheet and add the following macro to the code module of the workbook 
or an add-on.  Manually run the macro or put a call to it in an Auto_Open 
macro.

        Public Sub reName_Sheets()
            '
            ' Renames sheets from their default names (e.g., "Sheet1")
            ' to value in sheet's first cell (A1) except when that cell is
            ' blank
            '
            Dim fenSheet ' Index used in For Each ... Next loop
            
            For Each fenSheet In Sheets
                
                If Left(fenSheet.Name, 5) = "Sheet" And _
                    Not fenSheet.Range("A1") = "" Then
                    
                    fenSheet.Name = fenSheet.Range("A1")
                    
                End If
                
            Next fenSheet ' in Sheets
            
        End Sub ' reName_Sheets
