How do I convert a string array:

var names = [

    Bob,

    Michael,

    Lanny

];

into an object like this?

var names = [

    {name:Bob},

    {name:Michael},

    {name:Lanny}

];

names.map(name => ({ name }))

That is... map each entry (name) to an object with key name and value name.

var names = [

    Bob,

    Michael,

    Lanny

];



console.info(names.map(name => ({ name })))

Silly me, I forgot the most important part

names.map(name => name === 'Bob' ? 'Saab' : name)

     .map(name => ({ name }))
