Nope, not that I know of.  Variable names are precompiled into the 
program.  Besides which, you have already declared a variable with 
the name "stuff", so C++ will generate an error.
What you are probably looking for is a map, where you can refer to 
variables using entered data.  Those are way down the line, though, 
although you can look up the STL if you want.
