Subject: String to method name

I feel like I have a learning disability asking this, but what I am
trying to do is this:  

badGuyType = "mutantMonkey"

badGuyShow = "powerPuffGirls"

badGuy = "Mojo Jojo"

SenselessNames = Struct::new( :powerPuffGirls )

mutantMonkey = SenselessNames.new


-------------

Now, what I want to do next is:

mutantMonkey.powerPuffGirls = "Mojo Jojo"

but by referencing (that's what it is in perl right?) badGuyType,
badGuyShow and badGuy.  

Is there a way to do it?  Should I be using Object#call or something?  Am
I too clueless to be within fifteen feet of a programming language as
nice as Ruby? :) 

Thanks,
Rich
