is it possible to name sheets from cell reference from another sheet?

example:
i have a list of 4 names in sheet 1.

i want to name sheet 4, 5, 6, 7 from those names in sheet 1.

name 1 --> sheet 4
name 2 --> sheet 5
name 3 --> sheet 6
name 4 --> sheet 7

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
i want to name sheet 4, 5, 6, 7 from those names in sheet 1.
From where exactly in Sheet 1 are these names found?
You need to tell us the EXACT cell addresses where these names occur if you want us to create some VBA code to do this for you.

Try this code:
VBA Code:
Sub RenameSheets()

    Dim i As Long
    
    For i = 2 To ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Count
        Sheets(i).Name = Sheets(1).Cells(i, "A")
    Next i
    
End Sub
