It is posible on unix like system ( must be possible on others too But I dont know )
On my machine which happens to be linux I do

$Parent_id = `cat /proc/$$/status |grep PPid |awk '{print \$2}'`

chomp $Parent_id

If you want the process name too you will get it from /proc/$Parent_id/stat


But be warned that this process will work only if the parent is still running else It will show init
