Use the code I posted but change it slightly to make it run on all sheets.
Remove the code from the sheet module and place this revision into
Thisworkbook module.
Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
'autoname the worksheet Tab from value in B9
If Target.Cells.Count 1 Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Target, Me.Range("B9")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
On Error GoTo CleanUp
Application.EnableEvents = False
With Target
If .Value < "" Then
Me.Name = .Value
End If
End With
CleanUp:
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Great! Now, is there a way to run one macro that would work on multiple
worksheets so that they each get renamed to the value in B9 in that sheet?

Running the tiny macro will set the tab name to the value in B9:
Sub rNmae()
ActiveSheet.Name = Range("B9").Value
End Sub
Macros are very easy to install and use:
1. ALT-F11 brings up the VBE window
2. ALT-I
ALT-M opens a fresh module
3. paste the stuff in and close the VBE window
If you save the workbook, the macro will be saved with it.
To remove the macro:
1. bring up the VBE window as above
2. clear the code out
3. close the VBE window
To use the macro from Excel:
1. ALT-F8
2. Select the macro
3. Touch RUN
