Create a list of string properties

I’m looking for a way to have a dynamic amount of string properties.
currently I have setup an array which appends a bunch of string properties to a list, this is all fine and well except i can’t place the property in the layout due to it not having an identifier (well not that i know of).

    for _ in self.MATERIAL_LIST:
        self.TEXTURE_PROPERTIES.append(props.StringProperty(name=_, description='{} texture'.format(_)))       
        imageBox.prop(self.properties, 'TEXTURE_PROPERTIES')

above you can see I have a Material list which is a list of all the names of the materials

I wish to place each elemt of the array in a UIlayout box called ‘imageBox’
any help is appreciated and even alternative or more efficent ideas would be appreciated.

EDIT:imageBox.prop(self.properties, 'TEXTURE_PROPERTIES')
causes an error as TEXTURE_PROPERTIES property cannot be found
