retrieving name of a class?

[leftist]

Let's say that I've created an object:

var Model = Class.create();
Model.prototype = { ... }
Search = new Model();
 

I can't for the life of me get my Model object to tell me that it's name is Search.

Anyone have a clever trick?

It is sort of hard to imagine why you want to do that. But one thing you could do is pass "search" as a parameter to your constructor and in the constructor you can set a member variable called name to "search". Then your model class would know the name of the variable it was stored under. It is still a weird problem. Please post more about why you're doing that.
