Powershell: Create multiple files from a Word template and rename using a list in Excel/CSV (lemy.lol)

I'm a beginner to Powershell and CLI in general, but this task does not need to use either so I'm open to using other tools.

I'm trying to do the following:

Create multiple files from a Word template.
Rename each file based on a list of names found in an Excel/CSV sheet.

Thanks in advance!

If the Excel/CSV sheet is actually a CSV file, Import-Csv in powershell will return the content as an array of objects, where each row is one element in the array.
