How can I map unique strings to each value of a variable in order to insert those strings to make panel titles dynamic?

Hello. I have a variable let’s say it is adminName. I am querying a prometheus datasource in order to obtain 5 values for this adminName variable.

What I want to do now is to make the title of panels dynamic by mapping a special string to each variable value, and then insert that unique string into the title depending on what variable value was selected as a global filter.

For example, maybe adminName has 5 values returned: bob, steve, charlie, allison, tod

if ‘bob’ is selected as a global filter, then I want to display in a panel title a unique string welcoming ‘bob’:
“Hey Bob, here is your unique title just for you, please don’t break the system again”

but if ‘steve’ is selected, then I want the string to change and display in the panel title whatever I defined the mapping to be for Steve:
“Hey Steve, you owe me a donut”

Is there anyway to do this?

Grafana version: v.8.2.7.

Also, you can use the Global variable i.e. user so that the user can see their name and you can also put org variable so they can view their organization.
