php - How to create dynamic templates?

So let's say that I have a navbar template with the following content:

// template_parts / navbar.php

<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-lg dark bg-transparent fixed-top" id="mainNav">
  <div class="container">
    <a class="navbar-brand" href="./">
     This is the company name
    </a>
  </div>
</nav>

Is there a way to pass a variable to the template in order to change, in this case, the company's name when calling the template?

Something like get_template_part("template_parts/navbar","Microsoft");

I know the above syntax works for another purpose, I'm just trying to illustrate what I want to achieve.

Is there a way to do this? Thanks beforehand!

You can include the template like this include(locate_template('template-part.php'));. to pass the variable or used the outer variable/ dynamic values in the template.
