Aaah, okay. By the name I assume you mean the contents of one of the
model columns?

Now, assuming this is a single-selection TreeView, you simply call
Gtk::TreeView::Selection::get_selected() which returns a
Gtk::TreeModel::iterator pointing at the row that was selected, then you
can get the column contents from that, as in (*iter)[column]

If it's a multiple-selection TreeView, get_selected_items() will give
you a list of iterators to all the selected items, which you can do with
as you will.
