Basically, is there a method to delete all children in workspace with the same name. I am trying to make a tycoon regen script and i want to delete all BcopperIngot, BIroningot and bCopperOre that is currently in workspace. If there is not a method how would i be able to do it?

You can do what @KardashevScale said in the comments, I am going to give some examples of you could do. First one is what Kardashev said:
for i, v in pairs (workspace:GetChildren()) do
if v.Name == "IDK" then
v:Destroy()
end
end
Another way is to add the items with the same name in a folder and do workspace.Folder:ClearAllChildren().
Those are the 2 most efficient ways, pick the one you think is the best.

Return a table of the children in workspace using :GetChildren() then combine it with a for in pairs loop and check for any child named 'XYZ' then :Destroy() it.
