st: How to drop a repeated word in different label variables

Dear Statalists,
in my dataset, I have different variables whose labels have the same
initial words (Average Speed), as follows:
x1 "Average Speed car 1"
x2 "Average Speed car 2"
x3 "Average Speed car 3"
I would like to drop "Average Speed" from all the variables labels. The
result I would like to reach is as follows:
x1 "car 1"
x2 "car 2"
x3 "car 3"
Any suggestion will be very helpful.
Thank you in advance for your time
Alice Guerra
