Is there an easy way to get the name of the class from an object? I know we have a getAttributes method but I don't believe it includes the name of the class. That might be a nice addition so this can be even more dynamic.

When you say class name, do you mean an actual reference to the class or do you mean the string representation of the class name?
For example, if you already have the object you can get the class reference via: https://dictu-lang.com/docs/classes/#_class

The string representation of the class name.

Ah there's currently no way to turn a class reference into a string'd name. We could add a _name attribute similar to _class to classes

Should be added as part of #543
Now it would be:
class Test {}
print(Test._name);
print(Test()._class._name);
