For use in templates: 

{% if object|classname:"entry" %}
... class="{{ object|classname }}" ...

I couldn't find simpler solution for checking weather specific object belongs to specific class name, or just to output object's class name.

@register.filter
def classname(obj, arg=None):
    classname = obj.__class__.__name__.lower()
    if arg:
        if arg.lower() == classname:
            return True
        else:
            return False
    else:
        return classname
