Try either: def __str__(self): return '%s - %s' % (self.name, str(self.category))
or def __str__(self): return '%s - %s' % (self.name, self.category.name) The problem is that it is using __repr__ to print it out, not str. To force str you have to use the str(). Or you can override the __repr__ method, I suggest using the str() method, __repr__ should be used more as a debug tool rather then representing the object w/ more debug output then str does.
