I don't believe that its possible in C++, but I believe you could simulate it using std::map or std::unordered_map. Where you could save an object of a certain type and access it using an object of a different type (string in your case).

It should look something similar to:

C++

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

class W1{
public:
   std::string Name;
};

int main(){
   W1 a;
   std::cin >> a.Name;

   std::cout << "The name of W1 is :" << a.Name;
}
