trying to set string names from a table but, ends up setting it all to one name, help??
local data = {"noob", "string", "NeilTheGreat"}
for _, v in pairs(data) do ------------------- this entire section needs help.
print(v)
local stringName = v
for _, ayo in pairs(workspace.Folder:GetChildren()) do
ayo.Name = stringName
end
end
What I am basically trying to do here is, there is a folder with plain string values, in fact 3 string values. When I try to change their name to the items in data, it ends up changing it to NeilTheGreat each time for all of the values. And since I want it random, [1], [2], [3] won't work. Any help would be gr8! thanks

Give this a try, not sure if it will work:
local data = {"noob", "string", "NeilTheGreat"}
for i, v in pairs(data) do
print(v)
local stringName = v
for ii, ayo in pairs(workspace.Folder:GetChildren()) do
if i == ii then
local num = i
ayo.Name = data[num]
end
end
end
