In the long form, yes. That's why the ^ shorthand exists.
With the long form you have to start from an object of the same type to
get to its metamodel, then pass the object you're actually asking about
to the metamodel method; the simplest way to do this is to reuse the
same object.

Does the "12" have to be repeated?
Apparently what is in the () doesn't matter as long
as there is something
Couldn't help myself:
$ perl6 -e 'say 12.HOW.name(13)'
Int
$ perl6 -e 'say 12.HOW.name(0.5)'
Int
$ perl6 -e 'say 0.5.HOW.name(1)'
Rat
$ perl6 -e 'say 0.5.HOW.name(.)'
