Could I use apoc.convert.fromJsonList inside apoc.periodic.iterate?

Where are the mistakes in this query?

CALL apoc.periodic.iterate('
apoc.convert.fromJsonList('[1,2,3]') as v RETURN v'
,'
MERGE (person:Person {name:"Bob"})
',
{ batchSize: 10000, iterateList: true, parallel:true });

I think you might be after something like this:

CALL apoc.periodic.iterate(
  'RETURN apoc.convert.fromJsonList("[1,2,3]") AS v',
  'UNWIND v as item MERGE (person:Person {name:"Bob-" + item})',
  { batchSize: 10000, iterateList: true, parallel:true })

Thank for your response!
But If I want process the JSON. What kind of quotes I need to use?

CALL apoc.periodic.iterate(
  'RETURN apoc.convert.fromJsonList("[
  {
    "id": "01",
    "name": "Bob",
    "home": {
      "main": ["first"],
      "alternate": []
    }
  },
  {
    "id": "02",
    "name": "Rome",
    "home": {
      "main": ["second"],
      "alternate": []
    }
  }]") AS v',
  'UNWIND v as item MERGE (person:Person {name:"Bob-" + item})',
  { batchSize: 10000, iterateList: true, parallel:true })

I see the error:
Neo.ClientError.Procedure.ProcedureCallFailed: Failed to invoke procedure apoc.periodic.iterate: Caused by: org.neo4j.cypher.internal.v3_5.util.SyntaxException: Invalid input 'd': expected 'n/N' or 's/S' (line 3, column 7 (offset: 69))
