This is another answer:

public static string GetPropertyName(this HtmlHelper htmlHelper,
                                                                      Expression> expression)
    {
        var metaData = ModelMetadata.FromLambdaExpression(expression, htmlHelper.ViewData);

        return metaData.PropertyName;
    }
