How is the 'secret' referenced on the certificate generation side of things? Can I change this value or is it hardcoded?

kube-lego will search for an existing secret with that name (and specific content, see the ingress documentation), and if it doesn't exist (or is outdated, IIRC) will use letsencrypt to create a new certificate and store it in that secret. Therefore: yes, you can pick any valid name for this value.

Thank you!
