No, You misunderstood .  
I want to map every list to totally different name . For example:- i want map _listb_ to `Fersigan` name.

```julia
listb=["mag", "Limit", "Magnitude","UL", "magn"]

```

map `listc` to `raman` etc.  
What can i do instead of writing every time new code like given below:

```julia
namechange= Dict(name=> "Fersigan" for name in intersect(names(dataframe), listb))

```
