Default Sheet name in a cell

Is there a way to bring the name of the worksheet into a cell on the worksheet?

Default Sheet name in a cell

Use a formula like

=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,99)

In this formula, use the word "filename" as shown. Don't substitute
the actual file name. The reference A1 can be any cell -- it doesn't
matter. The name of the sheet on which that cell resides will be
returned.

Cordially,
