All IDEs have find and replace (pycharm's is very nice). And even python developers who eschew the IDE use SOMETHING to write their code... whether it's vim or notepad++ or vscode (people tell me it's not an IDE) or emacs or whatever, and that something invariably provides find and replace functionality (vim has the :substitute command. notepad++ has ctr+r. Microsoft Word has ctl+h ;) ). But if you really want it or need it in a situation where find and replace isn't a great option, you can hack a utility function using the 3.8 syntax: def nameof(x): return x.split("=", 1)[0] ...and use it in a nested fstring: >>> f"{nameof('{foo=}')}" foo Now refactoring can work like a charm for single variables: - f'{nameof(f"{bar=}")} is {bar}, not {zar}' → f'{nameof(f"{bar_new=}")} is {bar_new}, not {zar}' The OP example doesn't look fantastic, but it works: >>> f"{nameof(f'{a=}')} + {nameof(f'{b=}')}" == "a + b" True --- Ricky.
