The reason is likely that a value has never been saved for this field for the current post and you are using the field name in $key. Under this condition you need to use the field key instead of the field name.

You can solve this by building an array like this

$fields = array(
  // field name => key pairs
  'name-of-field-1' => 'field_123456',
  'name-of-field-2' => 'field_234567',
  // etc...
)

Then use

$field = get_field_object($field[$key], false, true);
