There is no connection between an object and its name (except in
PSAlter).  An object may have no name at all 

10 dict begin

or it may have multiple names

/x 10 dict begin def /y x def y begin

possibly in multiple dictionaries.

You can search known dictionaries looking for the object, and hope to
find it. But you might not!
