Transform.name() is a convenience method which just returns the value of
the Transform._name attribute which probably gets set upon instantiation of
the Transform class.
Put some of this code in a script, set a breakpoint on it in WingIDE and
step through the creation of the node and then the running of the name()
method if you really want to see what PyMEL is doing underneath the hood.
