Hi there
Below is some code that I'm trying to get to work. It only works on the 1st cell in my selection, instead of all the cells I've selected.
What am I missing?

Sub NameFromCell ()
Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In Selection
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:=ActiveCell.Range("A1") & "_", RefersToR1C1:=ActiveCell
Next cell
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
How about?
This is not tested yet.
VBA Code:
Sub NameFromCell ()
    Dim cell As Range
    For Each cell In Selection
         ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:=cell.value & "_",
         RefersToR1C1:=cell
    Next cell
End Sub
