You can get the Oid of the table very easily with the "tableoid" column.
If you want the name you can use tableoid::regclass, though I'm not sure
if that works as a normal text column.
Be sure to grok the difference between UNION and UNION ALL (which is the
fact that UNION sorts and "uniqs" its input).
