If you want to loop as before:
STORE m.tuValue TO (" toSavedObject." + m.tcProperty )

but as you are already given the name:
STORE m.tuValue TO (m.tcObjectName + "." + m.tcProperty )
should be the fastest option performancewise, as you do not have get object reference first.

BTW: no need to loop,
toSavedObject = eval(m.tcObjectName)
should do the trick faster, as no loop is involved.

Alternatively you could
= addproperty(toSavedObject, m.tcProperty, m.tuValue)
which also needs the resolving to a reference up front, will overwrite existing properties and also create the ones not already on the object
