Rewriting a loop in functional form maintaining object names

Question

I am trying to rewrite the following loop in form of a generalizable funtion:

count = 1
for (i in alc) {
  alc[[count]] <- fwildclusterboot::boottest(i, param = "treatment", clustid = "university", B = 9999)
  count = count + 1
}

In this code, alc is a list of fixest regression objects. The point of the code is to replace each component of the list with the wild-cluster-bootstrap estimates of each model, while maintaining the names of the objects. It is imperative that the name of the original list remains exactly the same since broom::glance will not work otherwise (e.g., using purrr::map, or other functional programming methods).

I have tried the following code, although this code does not work properly which surprises me; using get("alc")[[1]] in the console seems to give a proper output.

boot_estimates <- function(x, count=1) {
## get the name of the input x
  y <- deparse(substitute(x)) 
## replace elements of the name with bootstrapped versions
  for (i in x) {
    get("y")[[count]] <- boottest(i, param = "treatment", clustid = "university", B = 9999) 
    count = count + 1
  }
}
