C# Sorting list by another list

Question

I have now 2 lists:

list names;
list numbers;

and I need to sort my names based on the values in numbers. I\'ve be

Answer 1

So i assume that the elements in both lists are related through the index.

names.Select((n, index) => new { Name = n, Index = index })
     .OrderBy(x => numbers.ElementAtOrDefault(x.Index))
     .Select(x => x.Name)
     .ToList();

But i would use another collection type like Dictionary instead if both lists are related insomuch.
