I am using javascript in browser's console and defining a variable as :

const name = {firstName: 'hello', lastName: 'world'};

Whenever I'm trying to log name, it gives me [object Object], instead of giving me Object: {firstName: "hello", lastName: "world", __proto__: Object}

However when I'm creating a constant of other variable name, it is working fine

Works just fine in the Javascript console in Firefox. Please show a larger code snippet. – Thilo Feb 04 '17 at 08:24
