Alberto,

You can replace the variable name with a variable label in -outreg- (and in -estout-, although I am less familiar with the syntax).  -outreg-, which is downloadable from SSC, takes Stata's estimation output and reorganizes the table (if you want), which can be written to a Word or a LaTeX file.  You can apply variable labels with the following command:

. qreg ...
. outreg, varlabel
