get enum value using an object name...

I have a bunch of gameObjects and a "player" moving around that will tag them.

The camera will switch position/rotation based on a List and would like to use an enum to grab the List item holding the position and rotation data. Here is my code snippet...

 enum objects { obj0, anotherObj, yetAnotherOne, okLastObj };
 List<cameras> cameras = new List<cameras>();
 
 void OnTriggerEnter(Collider thisObject) {
     Debug.Log("Hit " + this.name + "! Obj: " + thisObject.gameObject.name);
 
     Camera.main.transform.position = cameras[objects.anotherObj].position;
     Camera.main.transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(cameras[objects.anotherObj].rotation);
 }

This works just fine but does anyone know how I can use the object name (this.name)?

tried using the only thing that keeps coming up in search

 objects parsed_enum = (objects)System.Enum.Parse(typeof(objects), this.name, true);

just returns the string value so "anotherObj" and trying to use it in the List call

Debug.Log(cameras[parsed_enum]);

won't compile due to this error (which makes sense since it's a string and not int)

Error CS1503: Argument #1' cannot convert objects' expression to type `int' (CS1503) (Assembly-CSharp)

How do you use a string to get the enum value so something like objects.this.name instead of hard coding it as objects.anotherObj so I can use it in the List call?

I also found a general C# Enum.Parse but Unity doesn't seem to understand the Parse unless there is another using/include that has that in it.
