MATLAB: How to efficiently make the for loop of different dot structure compact

efficientrename column namerename row names

Dear Coder, I want to rename the the RowNames and VariableNames of a Table. In this case, I have there different table namely, Tab_Eight, Tab_SixLate and Tab_SixEarly. For example, To rename the each of the RowName and VariableName in the Tab_Eight, the following code were realize
% Rename each of the 8 rows
for i=1:8
      Tab_Eight.Properties.RowNames{i} = char ((at.sub.ID ((GetPatName(i)),1)));
  end
And
% To rename each of the 12 column
for i =1:12
Tab_Eight.Properties.VariableNames{i} = char ((at.sub.Shiftday ((GetCondType(i)),1)));
end
Similarly, the table Tab_SixLate and Tab_SixEarly were modified simply by changing the content in the for loop into Where
 For the Tab_SixLate
for i=1:8
        Tab_SixLate.Properties.RowNames{i} = char ((at.sub.ID ((GetPatName(i)),1)));
    end
% And

    for i =1:12
    Tab_SixLate.Properties.VariableNames{i} = char ((at.sub.Shiftday ((GetCondType(i)),1)));
    end
For the Tab_SixEarly
for i=1:8
        Tab_SixEarly.Properties.RowNames{i} = char ((at.sub.ID ((GetPatName(i)),1)));
    end
% And
    for i =1:12
    Tab_SixEarly.Properties.VariableNames{i} = char ((at.sub.Shiftday ((GetCondType(i)),1)));
    end
As you can, the code is redundant and I need 6 For loop for the 3 tables. I wonder, how I can minimize the for loops? Note: The code is a portion of the big code. Without lost of meaning, only relevant code were shown

I think, this latest work-around work better than the original version.. However, I welcome any new suggestion.
sixEarly = (reshape ((result (:,1:96)),[12,8])).';
eightRoster = (reshape ((result (:,97:176)),[10,8])).';
sixLate = (reshape ((result (:,177:end)),[12,8])).';
% Do all the transformation under the function TABLECREATION
Tab_sixLate =tableCreation (at,sixLate);
Tab_sixEarly =tableCreation (at,sixEarly);
Tab_eightRoster =tableCreation (at,eightRoster);
function Table_Converted =tableCreation (at,NonConvertedCell)
Table_Converted = cell2table( NonConvertedCell ) ;
ListPat = (Table_Converted{:,1}).';
ListCondType = Table_Converted{1,:};
GetPatName = cellfun(@(v) v(1), ListPat(1,:));
GetCondType = cellfun(@(v) v(1), ListCondType(1,:));
% But still, I had to use two for loop here, mmm
for i=1:length  (GetPatName)
      Table_Converted.Properties.RowNames{i} = char ((at.sub.ID ((GetPatName(i)),1)));
  end
for i =1:length  (GetCondType)
Table_Converted.Properties.VariableNames{i} = char ((at.sub.Shiftday ((GetCondType(i)),1)));
end
end
