title: In Scala, how do I get the *name* of an `object` (not an instance of a class)?
body: <p>In Scala, I can declare an object like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>class Thing
  
  object Thingy extends Thing
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How would I get <code>"Thingy"</code> (the name of the object) in Scala?</p>
  
  <p><em>I've heard that Lift (the web framework for Scala) is capable of this.</em></p>
