Taking movieclip from library and giving it an instance name through code?

[Deejayo]

I am making a game where I reference "Player_mc" quite a lot. I have a bunch of full characters (movieclips) in the library that work as the player when put on the stage and referenced as "Player_mc". I need a code that can reference those characters (movieclips) in the library, and move them onto the stage and name them "Player_mc". Also I need a way of removing an existing "Player_mc" so that another character can be referenced and brought onto the stage as "Player_mc".

Here is what I have:

if (this.P1Character==(Whatever that character's number is)){

Do what???

}
