To get the filename of the Uploaded file, you can get the image from the request and then call this function on it.
var imageName = new WebImage(file.InputStream).FileName;
..would be
var image = WebImage.GetImageFromRequest().FileName;
This is the property for the image that was uploaded in the Request.

I was looking through the source of the constructor you are using with Reflector and there is no place they set the file name.
But you can probably get the file name using
var fileName = Request.Files[0].FileName;
Its only this constructor that set the file name property:
public WebImage(string filePath)
: this(new HttpContextWrapper(HttpContext.Current), filePath) {}
and of course the private one it uses.

Request.Files[0].FileName will get full url to he file from my local disk: c:\images\image.jpg
I think the FileName property gets set only if you use the WebImage(String filename) constructor. You should be able to get the file name from file object. Other properties such as Height, Width, etc should work fine.

When you write new WebImage(file.InputStream), you're creating a WebImage object from a raw stream.
You never pass it anything with a name, so the FileName property is null.
You should use the file.FileName property from the HttpPostedFile object.
