The function name can be easily obtained by the FUNCTION or the METHOD magic constant.

Method 1 : (Prints function name):
__FUNCTION__ is used to resolve function name or method name (function in class).
Example 1:

<?php
class Test {

    public function bar() {
        var_dump(__FUNCTION__);
    }
}

function foo() {
    var_dump(__FUNCTION__);
}

// Must output string(3) 'foo'
foo();

$obj = new Test;

// Must output string(3) 'bar'
$obj->bar();

Method 2: (Prints function and class name):
using __METHOD__.
Example 2 :

<?php

class Test
{
    public function foo() {
        var_dump(__METHOD__);
    }
}


function bar()
{
    var_dump(__METHOD__);
}

// Same As __FUNCTION__
bar();

$obj = new Test;

// Output the fully qualified method name "ClassName::MethodName"
$obj->foo();
