You can use a struct class

v=struct('name',{'tom','jerry','kim'},'age',{12 15 20},'height',{6 5 4})

To acces your data

v(1).name
v(1).age
v(3).name

You can also use table

your_vars={'var1' 'var2' 'var3'}'
name={'tom','jerry','kim'}'
age={12 15 20}'
height={6 5 4}'
data=table(name,age,height,'RowNames',your_var)
