This is true only for data frame, otherwise your answer contains a type IV error. To get a named list as a result, you need a named something as input. So either of the following will work: #1 myparams <- list(EMAX=EMAX, EC50=EC50,KOUT=KOUT, GAMMA=GAMMA) lapply(myparams, function(x) confint(lm(x ~RR0,dataset2)) #2 lapply(c(EMAX='EMAX',EC50='EC50',KOUT='KOUT',GAMMA='GAMMA'),function(x)confint(lm(get(x)~RR0,dataset2))) But your example with list will give you an unnamed list as the result.
