Do you mean like this?

struct ConfigName
{
    ConfigName(std::string const& value_) : value(value_) {}
    std::string value;
};

struct PathName
{
    PathName(std::string const& value_) : value(value_) {}
    std::string value;
};

If so, I'm trying to cut down on code duplication and have a standard 
way of accessing my parameter values.  By created each parameter value 
separately there is nothing that forces the programmer to have 
consistent interface to access the value.
