Subject: Dynamically naming an Object

I'm new to ruby, so this may be simple, but I can not figure it out.
Simply, I am wanting to dynamically create objects at runtime with a
variable name also given at runtime.

for example -

keys = []

word = ""

while word != "end"
  word = (gets.chomp)
  word = word.downcase
  keys.push(word) unless word == "end"
end

class Word
end

keys.each { |new_obj| new_obj = Word.obj

[user input of win]

puts win.inspect

I know it may sound strange, but I am just playing.  Any help would be
greatly appreciated.
