How to pass weapon owner name to projectile?,

Evening or Morning. I am trying to pass the weapon owners name to a projectile?

I am able to get the weapon owners name but when i try to pass it to the projectile, the projectile owners name is the name passed...

to get weapon owners name: owner = gameObject.transform.root.name;

Trying to pass it to projectile with: if (projectile != null) { Projectile newProjectile = Instantiate(projectile, muzzle[i].position, muzzle[i].rotation) as Projectile; newProjectile.SetSpeed(muzzleVelocity); newProjectile.SetDamage(damage); newProjectile.SetOwner(owner); // this line here to pass }

projectile script: public void SetOwner(string ownerName) { ownersName = ownerName; }

ownersName always comes back as weapon name in projectile script.,
