How to get Account Name using Account Id inside AWS lambda

I'm working on an AWS Lambda function using Node.js 12.x. I have the accountId that I pulled from the event.requestContext. Is there a way how to get the name of the account using the accountId inside the lambda function?

You can actually list the account aliases using api call ListAccountAliases. The corresponding example in from the documentaiton

        // Load the AWS SDK for Node.js
    var AWS = require('aws-sdk');
    // Set the region 
    AWS.config.update({region: 'REGION'});

    // Create the IAM service object
    var iam = new AWS.IAM({apiVersion: '2010-05-08'});

    iam.listAccountAliases({MaxItems: 10}, function(err, data) {
    if (err) {
        console.log("Error", err);
    } else {
        console.log("Success", data);
    }
    });
