Faster way to name map object with similar attributes?

I'm name mapping several objects that are in a dropdown dialog. All these objects are in the same location and use the same name mapping critiria, the only difference is the actual name I give them and the value of the InnerText property I use to identify them. Ideally I could just copy the object, paste it and then edit the name and InnerText property value but I can't see a way of doing that. Right now I use the spy tool to select one individual object, map it manually, make InnerText a required property and then give it a unique name. While this works just fine, it's tedious and slow. Is there a way to do this faster?

    Instead of mapping every individual object in the dropdown you can just use the "ClickItem" method and pass the item you wish to select. E.g (using C++ script):



    var Dropdown = Mapped name of the dropdown 

    Dropdown["ClickItem"]("Dropdown item 1");
