Had my cut and paste actions duplicated in the earlier post-disregard it.
This is a corrected version.

Here's a partial solution. This works in OS 9.2.2 (modified because I don't
have FM). Note: your examples have "Finder vice "Finder", but I don't know
if that's what you tried to run in your script.

set x to "report_date_start"
set y to "report_date_end"
set Myname to ("Rev Rpt " & x & " to " & y) as string
tell application "Finder"
make new folder at desktop with properties {name:"Myname"}
end tell
