Well, why do you require the name of this column. You just need to know the
'name' of the cell which can be referred to by its column number and its row
number.

Some people call it the "row index". others call it "Row Header" (this is
what it is refered to in <tools<options<view)
the Function
=row()
gives the row number for that row the equation is in.
