How Can I Create A Vip List For A DearkHeart?

I mean by this is something like this: VIP = {"someguy", "Anotherperson", Onemoreguy"} and then have it like game.Lighting.Dearkheart:Clone() = player.Startergear So my friends and i can all have dearkhearts and no one else can in the game.

local vipAccess = {"someguy", "Anotherperson", Onemoreguy"}
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
	for i,v in pairs(vipAccess) do
		if plr.Name == v then
			game.Lighting.Dearkheart:Clone().Parent = plr.Backpack
		else
			print("player is not in VIP list")
		end
	end
end)

Or a more efficient version that will let them keep the Darkheart after they die-

local VIP = { ["jacobwow"] = true, ["ekkoh"] = true }
-- I'd recommend putting it in ServerStorage rather than Lighting 
local Tool = Game:GetService("ServerStorage"):WaitForChild("Darkheart")

Game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
	if VIP[plr.Name:lower()] == true then
		Tool:Clone().Parent = plr.Backpack
		Tool:Clone().Parent = plr.StarterGear
	end
end)
