Accessing a Passed Variable's Previous Name

[voidstate]

Hi

I want to pass a variable to a function and have that function add it to an array, using the variable's name (before it was passed) without the dollar sign as the key.

So...

$data = 'someString'

would be added to my varArray array as:

varArray( 'data' => 'someString' )

while...

$moreData = 'anotherString'

would change the array to:

varArray( 'data' => 'someString' ,  'moreData ' => 'anotherString' )

and so on.

Is it possible to access the name a cariable had before being passed?

Cheers
