I think variable names applied to vehicles in the editor are persistent, even through respawn, if I'm wrong, in the expression field of the respawn module put:

(_this select 0) setVehicleVarName (vehicleVarName (_this select 1))

When you say name of the vehicle, do you actually mean name of the variable that contains the vehicle object?

The BIS respawn module function already does it via BIS_fnc_ObjectVar. Which is a quite useful function for setting a var name and syncing it across the network.

You can use the method BIS uses...

something like this, using their function

// returns varName if it has one, or assigns one if not
_oldVar = _oldVic call BIS_fnc_objectVar; 

deleteVehicle _oldVic; // from your script

_newVic = createVehicle [/* code */]; // from your script

// assigns _newVic the same var names as _oldVic
_newVar = [_newVic,_oldVar] call BIS_fnc_objectVar;

but the problem may be that the script is not running again for the new vehicle

_newVic = createVehicle [/* code */]; // from your script
_script = [_newVic] execVM "respawnScript.sqt";
