Rename documents in Javascript

Question

I have an array with documents paths, is there any way to go through the array and to rename each file on the disk using JavaScript?

For example:

var arr=["../images/1.pdf","../images/2.pdf","../images/3.pdf"];

Desired output:

var arr=["../images/a.pdf","../images/b.pdf","../images/c.pdf"];

@FanyoSILIADIN, not sure what you mean, I simply don't know if it's possible or not. — user3378165

Is this JS in the browser? Support for this isn't great if so as it's considered a security risk. — Tom

It doesn't matter if you'r using Javascript or not, however it does matter if you'r running in a browser or not.

You can't just access files on the disk from a Browser, but this is totally possible for example from node.js or an electron application, and maybe for a browser addon and other VMs.
