ToString solves your problem


In[1]:= n = 6; binlist = ToString /@ Range[n]
binnames = (StringJoin["bin", #1] & ) /@ binlist
Out[1]= {"1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6"}
Out[2]= {"bin1", "bin2", "bin3", "bin4", "bin5", "bin6"}


or


In[3]:= binnames1 = (StringJoin["bin", ToString[#1]] & ) /@ Range[n]
Out[3]= {"bin1", "bin2", "bin3", "bin4", "bin5", "bin6"}



In[4]:= binnames1 === binnames
Out[4]= True
