Selenium WebElement Logical name implementation

Question

Wanted to ask if anyone is aware about any implementation or pattern for Selenium WebElement interface to get "Logical Name" of any given WebElement object in Java.

I am looking for something like this:

@FindBy(xpath = "//tr[2]/td[@class='listrow1'][3]")
    private WebElement txtProvider;
    txtProvider.SetLogicalName = "Provider TextBox" 

assertEqualsSoft(txtProvider.getText(), hashMap.get(EMHashMapConst.PROVIDER), txtProvider.getLogicalName + strMsg);

You could probably do something similar through Reflection.

Java Reflection: How to get the name of a variable?

(edit: Before the revision of the question it wasn't totally clear that this was related to Selenium API property, I thought you were just looking for way of programatically ID'ing variable. If so, reflection is good to look into, as it is a generic programming practice.)
