Rsync script to rewrite suffix - BASH, awk, sed, perl?

trying to write up a script to put the suffix back.
heres what I have but can't get it to do anything Smilie

would like it to be name.date.suffix

Code:
rsync -zrlpoDtub --suffix=".`date +%Y%m%d%k%M%S`.~" --bwlimit=1024  /mymounts/test1/ /mymounts/test2/

Code:
while IFS=. read -r -u 9 -d '' name suffix date tilde
do
    mv "${name}.${suffix}.${date}.~" "${name}.${date}.${suffix}"
done 9< <(find . -type f -name "*.~" -print0)

Code:
   rsync -zrlpoDtub --suffix=".`date +%Y%m%d%k%M%S`.~" --bwlimit=1024  /mymounts/test2/ /mymounts/test1/

Code:
while IFS=. read -r -u 9 -d '' name suffix date tilde
do
    mv "${name}.${suffix}.${date}.~" "${name}.${date}.${suffix}"
done 9< <(find . -type f -name "*.~" -print0)

Thanks in advance,

receiving error:

Code:
rsync: link_stat "/RsyncScripts/94646.~" failed: No such file or directory (2)
rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1039) [sender=3.0.6]
rsync: link_stat "/RsyncScripts/94647.~" failed: No such file or directory (2)
rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) (code 23) at main.c(1039) [sender=3.0.6]

Fixed that error was an error in rsync syntax Smilie
still not rewriting as I would like rewrote as "test1.txt.20130320 95325.~"

BASENAME(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 					       BASENAME(1)

NAME
basename, dirname -- return filename or directory portion of pathname SYNOPSIS
basename string [suffix] basename [-a] [-s suffix] string [...] dirname string [...] DESCRIPTION
The basename utility deletes any prefix ending with the last slash '/' character present in string (after first stripping trailing slashes), and a suffix, if given. The suffix is not stripped if it is identical to the remaining characters in string. The resulting filename is written to the standard output. A non-existent suffix is ignored. If -a is specified, then every argument is treated as a string as if basename were invoked with just one argument. If -s is specified, then the suffix is taken as its argument, and all other arguments are treated as a string. The dirname utility deletes the filename portion, beginning with the last slash '/' character to the end of string (after first stripping trailing slashes), and writes the result to the standard output. EXIT STATUS
The basename and dirname utilities exit 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. EXAMPLES
The following line sets the shell variable FOO to /usr/bin. FOO=`dirname /usr/bin/trail` SEE ALSO
csh(1), sh(1), basename(3), dirname(3) STANDARDS
The basename and dirname utilities are expected to be IEEE Std 1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') compatible. BSD
