Get name of class without instance

[Bryan]

Given a class:

class Foo(object):
    pass

How can I get the name "Foo" without having an instance of the class?

str(Foo) gives me more than just the name Foo.   "__main__.Account"
Foo.__class__.__name__ gives me "type"

I don't want to do:
Foo().__class__.__name__ if possible.  I would rather avoid the
constructor.  I just want to get a string "Foo"
