How to replace data by a variable in .$getJSON method

Question

Quick question:

How can I replace data by a variable?

$.getJSON('getdata.php', {data: 'hello'}, function(jsonResult) {

Just to be clear, i do not mean 'hello'

you want to use unic variables in the return ? instead all the result in one variable? — Ricardo Binns

var someVar = '???',
    dataObj = {};

dataObj[someVar] = 'hello';

$.getJSON('getdata.php', dataObj, function(jsonResult) { ... })

var myData = {};
var keyName = 'example';

myData[keyName] = 'hello';

$.getJSON('getdata.php', myData, function(jsonResult) {
