Please note that actually def'ing each value is not what you're
supposed to do :) def is reserved for global constants and dynamically
rebindable variables, and redefing an existing variable is considered
bad style.
You might do something like this:
(defn children [father mother & children]
(let [base {:father father :mother mother}]
(for [c children] (assoc base :name c))))
;; note, that's not a for loop, but a seq comprehension
which, when called like
(children "John" "Mary" "Cindy" "Gary")
produces a (lazy) sequence of maps representing the children.
