Been a while since I've used FW 8 but check and see if you have a
command set called "document" in the Commands menu. If you do, one of
the commands is called "Distribute to Layers."

This will move each item to a layer, but there is no batch renaming
option. You're on your own this time , but next time you will know to
create the layers and name them as you create your design.
