Referencing variable in addChild

First off I want to say that the resources on this site have been excellent, thanks.

Does anyone know how to reference a variable when adding a new Movieclip?

Currently I am using this method:

var myVariable:String = "one"
 
if(myVariable == "one"){
    var myMovieClip = this.addChild(new one())
}
else if(myVariable == "two"){
    var myMovieClip = this.addChild(new two())
}
else if(myVariable == "three"){
    var myMovieClip = this.addChild(new three())
}

etcetera.

I was wondering if there was a way to just have it put the variable in to the addChild argument, meaning I could do away with all the ifs to check what the variable is.

e.g.

var myVariable:String = "one"
var myMovieClip = this.addChild(new >>whatever myVariable is<<())

I tried doing a search, but had no idea what to search for, so I didn’t find anything.
