That sounds like a different "rename" command than the one I'm
familiar with.  The version on my systems produces the following
usage message:

  $ rename
  Usage: rename [-v] [-n] [-f] perlexpr [filenames]

Its manpage shows that it was originally written by Larry Wall (father
of Perl).  A Web search indicates that there is, indeed, more than one
"rename" command out there:
