JIRA Command Line Interface (CLI) can help with this. You can use setFieldValue with the appendText parameter. Combine that with the runFromIssueList action with a JQL query to determine what issues need the field to be updated. Reference: How to use runFromIssueList

You'll need to script an update to each and every text field.

Personally, I wouldn't bother.  A text field is supposed to be for free-text, and putting prefices in text feels like a bodge.  If you really need to classify stuff like that, you should almost certainly be using a new field for the prefix.

Could you explain the reason you think a prefix is the right thing to do?  Or the problem you're trying to solve with it at least?
