I'm creating mulitple instances, putting them in a list, iterating
through the list to send them to some functions where process them
with some instance specific parameters. Something along the lines of:

bob = someobject()
harry = someobject()
fred = someobject()

parameterdict = {'bob':(0,1,2),'harry':(3,4,5),'fred':(6,7,8)}
people_list = (bob, harry, fred)

for person in people_list:
  add_parameters(person)

def add_parameters(person)
  mytuple = parameterdict[??????instance.name????]
  person.x = mytuple[0]
  person.y = mytuple[1]
  person.z = mytuple[2]

If you want an object to have a 'personal' name, give it a name attribute, just like python does to modules, classes, and functions.

class someob():
  def __init__(self,name):
    self.name = name

people = {someob('bob'), someob('harry'), someob('fred')
...
def add_param(person):
  mytuple = parameterdict[person.name]
  ...
