Not really. There may not be any such thing as "the function name". A function may have zero names, it may have a dozen names. It may have names but only in namespaces that aren't accessible. This question comes up at least once a month, so look back through the group for threads about finding an object's name, finding a parameter's name, etc. Here's a nice article on introspection, but what it talks about as a "function name" probably isn't what you're interested in: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-pyint/index.html Here's a stack-overflow question similar to yours: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1538342/how-can-i-get-the-name-of-an-object-in-python -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow!
