Well, umm I would not use evaluate, if I could at all avoid it. The bracket
notation is generally considered superior to evaluate.
But if you insist, I think the right parenthesis was out of place in your code.
It should go around the name string and ID variable. Also, it looks like you
where missing a #. You only had three and they usually come in matched pairs.
Anyway how I would do it.
<cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="#form['name' & ID]#">
If you insist on evaluate, I think this may work.
<cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_varchar" value="#Evaluate("name"&#ID#")#>
