generate a structure you've specified in your question:

>>> [dict(zip(("Age", "Name"), x)) for x in zip(temp_list[3:], temp_list[:3])]
[{'Age': '23', 'Name': 'John'}, {'Age': '43', 'Name': 'Apple'}, {'Age': '13', 'Name': 'Alice'}]

You can use the following dict comprehension:

 final_list = dict(zip(temp_list[:3], temp_list[3:]))

Example:

>>> temp_list=["John","Apple","Alice","23","43","13"]
>>> final_list = dict(zip(temp_list[:3], temp_list[3:]))
>>> final_list
{'John': '23', 'Apple': '43', 'Alice': '13'}

In general, if n = len(temp_list) you can use:

final_list = dict(zip(temp_list[:n // 2], temp_list[n // 2:]))
