Get the name of the executing SQL Stored Procedure, UDF, or trigger inside the object

On SQL Serer using T-SQL how do you determine the name of the object, such as stored procedure or UDF, that is executing from inside the object while it is executing.
FROM BOL:
@@PROCID (Transact-SQL)
Returns the object identifier (ID) of the current Transact-SQL module. A Transact-SQL module can be a stored procedure, user-defined function, or trigger. @@PROCID cannot be specified in CLR modules or the in-process data access provider.
couple this with the Object_Name() function and Wah-Lah!
Try the following inside a stored procedure:
SELECT SCHEMA_NAME(SO.schema_id) AS SchemaName , OBJECT_NAME(@@PROCID) AS ObjName , @@PROCID AS ProcID FROM sys.objects so WHERE SO.object_id = @@PROCID
If you don't need the schema save the trip to the sys.objects table.
This code even works in nested calls
If run as just a script, not inside a module, it returns NULL.
