Q:

create object using variables for property name

Is it at all possible to use variable names in object literal properties for object creation?
Example
function createJSON (propertyName){
    return { propertyName : "Value"};
}

var myObject = createJSON("myProperty");

console.log(myObject.propertyName);  // Prints "value"
console.log(myObject.myProperty);  // This property does not exist

A:

If you want to use a variable for a property name, you can use Computed Property Names. Place the variable name between square brackets:
var foo = "bar";
var ob  = { [foo]: "something" }; // ob.bar === "something"

If you want Internet Explorer support you will need to use the ES5 approach (which you could get by writing modern syntax (as above) and then applying Babel):
Create the object first, and then add the property using square bracket notation.
var foo = "bar";
var ob  = {};
ob[foo] = "something"; // === ob.bar = "something"

If you wanted to programatically create JSON, you would have to serialize the object to a string conforming to the JSON format. e.g. with the JSON.stringify method.    

A:

ES6 introduces computed property names, which allow you to do
function CreateJSON (propertyName){
    var myObject = { [propertyName] : "Value"};
}

Note browser support is currently negligible.

A:

You can sort of do this:
  var myObject = {};
  CreateProp("myProperty","MyValue");

  function CreateProp(propertyName, propertyValue)
  {
      myObject[propertyName] = propertyValue;
      alert(myObject[propertyName]);  // prints "MyValue" 
  };

I much perfer this syntax myself though:
function jsonObject()
{
};
var myNoteObject = new jsonObject();

function SaveJsonObject()
{
    myNoteObject.Control = new jsonObject();
    myNoteObject.Control.Field1= "Fred";
    myNoteObject.Control.Field2= "Wilma";
    myNoteObject.Control.Field3= "Flintstone";
    myNoteObject.Control.Id= "1234";
    myNoteObject.Other= new jsonObject();
    myNoteObject.Other.One="myone";
};

Then you can use the following:
SaveJsonObject();
var myNoteJSON = JSON.stringify(myNoteObject);

NOTE: This makes use of the json2.js from here:http://www.json.org/js.html
