rename any folder to current date:
ren "any folder" %date%

It probably won't work if you have slash as date separator.
I have dot, so it's OK for me.

You could make it this way to skip separators:
ren "any folder" %date:~-2%%date:~3,2%%date:~,2%
But, again it depends on your system's date format.
