If you want to refer to the variables by name based on user input, perhaps you could use a std::map.

Maybe, but why do you reject the approach that I have suggested?

because i should work with array for example arrays that stores object name
but i do not know how

What made you come to the conclusion that you should use an array of objects that know their own name (or rather, are assigned names by which they can be referenced)? It is certainly possible, but you would need to keep the array in sorted order by "object name" in order to use binary search. A std::map or std::tr1::unordered_map is likely to be easier.
