Create columns with similar name

I need to create a large number of columns with the same name: for example, "Character1", "Character2", "Character3"... and so on until "Character46"

 

Is there an easy way to do this using an Alteryx formula?

@parthshukla If columns already exist look at the dynamic rename tool too
