@arraynames = ( 'ernie', 'bert', 'bbird');
foreach $name (@arraynames) {
push @$name, $someValue;
}

Make the array names keys in a hash.
my @fields = ( 'ernie', 'bert', 'bbird');
my %config;
foreach my $name ( @fields ) {
push @{ $config{ $name } }, $some_value;
}

Something like this:
my %arraynames = ( ernie => [], bert => [], bbird => [] );
foreach my $name ( keys %arraynames ) {
push @{ $arraynames{ $name } }, $someValue;
}
