The script ThunarBulkRename does not support input file paths with spaces (and probably other special symbols) - see the command example below.

dzmitry@z:~$ /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/Thunar/ThunarBulkRename /mnt/share/tales/George\ Orwell/
Thunar: Error when getting information for file '/mnt/share/tales/George': No such file or directory

'Thunar --bulk-rename' works just fine:
dzmitry@z:~$ Thunar --bulk-rename /mnt/share/tales/George\ Orwell/
dzmitry@z:~$

Meanwhile this bug is kinda "fixed" for master, since the "ThunarBulkRename" script was purged. Actually this script only exististed because of a bug in xfdesktop. Since this bug got fixed since a long time, the script was removed.

See details here:
