Assigning names to values of an array

Hello, so I have the following problem. I have 2 arrays, a 1x395 containing names and a 1x395 containing values corresponding to said names. What I want to achieve is assign each name to its corresponding value, sigma-clip the values and then return the names of the values that survived the sigma-clip. I know how to sigma-clip the values, but how do I assign the name of the values to the values themselves? Thanks in advance

Combine the names and value into a table first?
Atbl = table(names,values)

Perform your sigma clipping on the values, but remove the row of the table. What remains is the surviving values, and their corresponding names.
ok but how can I simultaneously eliminate the undesired values AND their corresponding names?
What have you tried? It's much easier to help if you share your code and data.
