[racket] something like a prop:object-name?

What do you mean?  I tried it and it didn’t affect the object-name.  

And what I’m looking for is something that could be different for different instances of the same structure type, for example:
(struct thing (name) #:property prop:object-name (struct-field-index name))

(struct proc-with-string (proc str)
  #:property prop:procedure (struct-field-index proc)
  #:property prop:object-name (lambda (this)
                                (object-name (proc-with-string-proc this)))
  #:property prop:custom-write (lambda (this out mode)
                                 (display (proc-with-string-str this) out)))
