List volume information and how to grab it with a python script

Trelis Version: Cubit 15.2
Platform: MacOS

If I list a volume in CUBIT using list command, I got the volume information as attached.
What concerns me is the last line of the list, which is the name of the component in the original CAD model. My question is what the property of this line is in CUBIT? It does not seem to me it is the name of the volume nor description or metadata. If I want to utilize the information in this line, which function in Cubitinterface I should use to grab this information. Thanks.

This appears to be a name that is associated with the body containing the volume. CubitInterface does not provide a method for examining the contents of the command buffer. However, you can get the body name by doing:

cubit.get_entity_name(“body”, 1)

Note that names with - and / are not valid for internal use because the names overload the mathematical minus and divide symbols.
