Hi fluffy. You can use some code like this.

```

AZ::Entity* newEntity = aznew AZ::Entity("testEntity");
newEntity->CreateComponent("{22B10178-39B6-4C12-BB37-77DB45FDD3B6}"); // transform component
newEntity->CreateComponent("{.....}"); // your component uuid
newEntity->Init();
newEntity->Activate();
AZ::Vector3 pos(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f); // position
AZ::TransformBus::Event(newEntity->GetEntityId(), &AZ::TransformInterface::SetWorldTM, AZ::Transform::CreateTranslation(pos));
```
Hope, that help to you :)

No only uuid of component. Name using just for debugging and not using in create process, how far i know.

Thanks for tip !
Can we just use name of components instead of those uuid numbers ?
