Wow, I really recommend you look around to the "case" statement.
And the 'star' (*) operator (this one is tricky : it can either make
an array from separated vars or splat an existing array into several
separate stuff).

http://www.zenspider.com/Languages/Ruby/QuickRef.html

case name
  when "John", "Johnny" ; puts "nice name"
  when * girls_name ; puts "beautiful name"
  when "exit" ; exit 0
 else puts name
end

Yes. But why didn't you try ? You'd have seen by yourself :)
