Dynamic paths in require are not currently supported. Please check this answer

This is covered in the documentation under the section "Static Resources":

The only allowed way to refer to an image in the bundle is to literally write require('name-of-the-asset') in the source.

You can use a switch statement to implement this.

I'm not sure about it but you can try to write it in ES6

require(`index/components/${name}`);
