As Mark said, you probably want `get[corpname]`.

Common pitfall. At the top of your tiddler, define a macro, like so:

\define createCorpTiddler()
<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-new-tiddler" title="Corp:$(FirstName)$" 
tags="Corp Corp:$(FirstName$)-$(LastName$)"/>
\end

Then, inside your button, insert this macro:

<$button>Generate Corp
<<createCorpTiddler>>
</$button>

Basically, you need the `$(variable)$` syntax for this kind of 
interpolation, but that is only available in macro bodies.

3) Am I going about this in an absurd manner?

Dunno. Life is absurd. This bit doesn't strike me as particularly more so 
than the rest.
