    $b = array ( 
      'name'        => 'Gilbert',
      'fullname '   => $b['name']. 'Hocvinger',
       );

You can not act like this way since during definition of array it's fields are inaccessible because array is not defined yet.

But you can easily do that after array's definition, like:

$b = array('name' => 'Gilbert');
$b['fullname'] = $b['name'].' Hocvinger';

you can do this after initializing the array

$b = array ( 
      'name' => 'Gilbert'
);

$b['fullname ']  = $b['name']. 'Hocvinger';

echo $b['fullname'];
