The script given below may work properly.
find command is used to search in all the subdirectories.
basename will extract only filename with .txt extension from
absolute path of file.
cut command will print opnly filename without extension.
mv command is uset to rename.
#!/bin/bash
for i in $(find -name \*.txt)
do
mv $i $(echo `basename $i` | cut -d . -f 1).my
done
