Converting attributenames to lowercase

I need to batch-convert a lot of featureclasses from an Oracle Spatial database into SQL Server Spatial 2008. In it's own, that's not a problem to do, but I need to have all the attribute names and values in lowercase due to compatibility reasons, as all our data in SQL Server will be exported to our hosted WebGIS-server, which runs PostGIS. I can use the CaseChanger to make all attribute-values lowercase, but I cant seem to transform the attributenames themselves into lowercase. Only workaround I can see is using the AttributeRenamer or AttributeCopier and then renaming every single attributename by hand. I'm looking at converting well over 200 featureclasses, so doing it by hand is not an option. Anyone got an idea how to make all attributenames lowercase?

Never mind.. FME evangelist provided the answer.. "AttributeExpressionRenamer" does the trick.
