I don't think it works well with "Kernel#origin(name)" because the lookup result 
may change when changing the class definitions. The method, which returns the 
class name, should be directly related to the existing "Method" object. Example:

 >>>>> Example >>>>>
class Otto
   def hi
     puts "'Hi!' from an Otto instance"
   end
end

class Hugo < Otto
end

o1 = Hugo.new
mymeth1 = o1.method(:hi)

class Hugo < Otto
   def hi
     puts "'Hi!' from a Hugo instance"
   end
end

mymeth2 = o1.method(:hi)

mymeth1[] # => 'Hi!' from an Otto instance
mymeth2[] # => 'Hi!' from a Hugo instance

p mymeth1 # => #<Method: Hugo(Otto)#hi>
p mymeth2 # => #<Method: Hugo#hi>
