If by "automatically" you mean by formula, then, yes, you can put a name in a cell that will change automatically when you change the name of the table or sheet.




For a sheet name in cell A2:


=TEXTBEFORE(REFERENCE.NAME(A2,2,reference-style),"::")


For a table name in cell A3:


=TEXTBETWEEN(REFERENCE.NAME(A3,2,reference-style),"::","::")



(use ; instead of , in the formulas if your region uses , as a decimal separator)
