    when you have an array and you extract them, then you should have those vars already

    You probably what something like this:
    
//you get the variable name from mysql in $var_name_from_db
//let's say $var_name_from_db='my_variable_name';
$$var_name_from_db='1234';

echo $my_variable_name; //this prints: 1234
