Folders as variables? Help needed!

There are a series of postcards a client wants to send out with a unique URL on it such as:

http://www.somesite.com/tomjones

There would be over 20,000 unique names. How can I capture those as variables to search in a database for their unique information?

Would they be variables? Or something else? I just need to capture that folder name without acually creating 20,000 folders.


THANKS!
