How to get the Name of an Object in JavaScript?

Question

JavaScript

There is an object
var date = {
"man1" : "1974, 10, 29"
}
How to get its name? In this case date.
I just pass an object from an external file to a function, there can be a lot of objects (in different places passed to this function) and I need to return an object from the function that would be in the _date format so that later I can easily look for a specific processed object and not get confused .
I can not find the answer in any way by finding the name of the object. Putting a name on an object is not an option.

Answer 1

Well, the names of variables given through var cannot be obtained. It seems to me that in your case the only valid option is to use your objects (for example, date ) inside other objects. Then the keys can be collected using Object.keys , or just for (key in obj)
UPD: I most likely misunderstood what you need, but still tried:

obj = {
  date: {
    "man1" : "1974, 10, 29"
  }
}

result_obj = {};

Object.keys(obj).forEach(function(key) {
    result_obj['_' + key] = obj[key];
});

console.log(result_obj);

And why do you need to pass an object with a changed name? In most cases, when I had to reach my left foot to my right ear, in the end it turned out that the task was solved much easier xD
