If an FFL took possession of it, they have to keep records of it. That includes the identity of the person who sent it to them.
Not all states have gun registration, so the gun may never have been "in someone's name." Nonetheless, the involvement of the FFL leaves a traceable paper trail.
When you pick the gun up from the FFL, they'll transfer it to you, and the records will indicate that.
