Option to cancel job by jobname not ID?

Is it possible to delete multiple TORQUE batch jobs with the same name, instead of typing in each individual job number? I do not want to use the qdel -u username option, as I have other jobs that I want to spare. It is +100 individual jobs so would rather not type in each jobnumber if there's a quicker option! I found this option online; ~~~ qdel wc_jobname ~~~ But it returns the error, > qdel: illegally formed job identifier: wc_jobname
