The routine xname returns the name of the x-axis used to define obj.  It returns either a name or FAIL.

The routine yname returns the name of the y-axis used to define obj.  It returns either a name or FAIL.

The routine zname returns the name of the z-axis used to define obj.  It returns either a name or FAIL.

The command with(geom3d,xname) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
