try this for a fixed text pattern

grep -F "name$count"  sourcefile
3

can we minimize this... :confused:
i have tried lot but not find any solutions yet..:wall:

grep $(eval echo "$`echo "name$count"`") file

Maybe: grep "$(eval echo '$name'$count)"

However, if the OP's shell has arrays...

I can't tell what you're even trying to do, but in bash or new enough ksh you can do

ASDF="1234"
VARNAME="asdf"
echo "${VARNAME}=${!VARNAME}"
