If I had to guess I'd say the name of the function isn't stored with it
nil
boot.user=> (clojure.reflect/reflect (fn foo [] nil))
{:bases #{clojure.lang.AFunction}, :flags #{:public :final}, :members
#{#clojure.reflect.Constructor{:name boot.user$eval1530$foo__1531,
:declaring-class boot.user$eval1530$foo__1531, :parameter-types [],
:exception-types [], :flags #{:public}} #clojure.reflect.Method{:name
invoke, :return-type java.lang.Object, :declaring-class
boot.user$eval1530$foo__1531, :parameter-types [], :exception-types [],
:flags #{:public}}}}
