I believe it's the getNameStr() method.

Note that not all instructions have names (i.e., getNameStr() might give 
you an empty string).  I think the LLVM disassembler prints a number 
when the instruction has no name.

There's a pass which, I think, gives names to all values, but I don't 
recall the pass's name.
