Hallo, I have a string array, say array A which has elements like A1 A2 A3 And I want to change them to variable names so that I can create another array based on these names. For example: for i=1:n A(i,1)= [X(i,1),Y(i,1)] end where X and Y are other arrays.

You can use genvarname to generate variable names.
doc genvarname
However, you probably don't want to actually do this. MATLAB recommends against making variables like A1, A2, etc. See below for suggested workarounds.
