If you want to dynamically define and export variable names in Bash here is the TLDR;
# Define the name of the variable
key="my-dynamic-var-name"
# Declare it and export it
declare -gx "$key"="some-value"
To then access that value via a dynamically generated variable name
# Create a variable that contains the variable name
var_to_access="my-dynamic-var-name"
# Read the value
my_var_value=${!var_to_access}
Read the man page for declare
