You can parse the script name from the path string.
This works:
tell application "System Events" to get name of (path to me) -- you can also use Finder instead of System Events, but I understand that it's better to use System Events instead of Finder wherever possible.
It returns the name of a saved script (either as a compiled script or as an application); if the script has not been saved, though, it returns the name of the editor.
