This works for me, although I suspect there are other ways. You should check on the compatibility of "arguments.callee" before using it for any crucial purpose, of course.
Hope this helps,

Code:

<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function someFunc() {
var ownName = arguments.callee.toString();
ownName = ownName.substr('function '.length); // trim off "function "
ownName = ownName.substr(0, ownName.indexOf('(')); // trim off everything after the function name
alert(ownName);
}
someFunc();
//-->
</script>
