If this is as easy as it seems to be, you just need to use string concatenation.

 

<?php
$bloomName = 'somevalue'; //the original variable
$ext = 'jpg'; //the extension
$bloomName = $bloomName . '.' . $ext; //concatenate the two variables with a dot to separate the extension
//then insert it into the db
?>
