Strip database.DBO from name

Newbie to python and I was wondering if there is a way to remove database.DBO. from database.DBO.feature.
feature = database.DBO.feature[13:] works, but seems a little of a kludge.

This should do it

feature = database.DBO.feature

new_name = feature.split('.')[-1]

[-1] is the last item in the list, which is what comes after the last period. This should return 'feature'.
