Left of the default of bar labels:
graph hbar (mean) trunk turn mpg , scheme(s1mono) legend(off)
blabel(name ,pos(inside))
Left end of the bars:
graph hbar (mean) trunk turn mpg , scheme(s1mono) legend(off)
blabel(name ,pos(base))
If you mean the name of variable and not the label "mean of ..." then
use the -nolabel- option with the -blabel()- option.
Another way: left of the categorical axis (using Nick's -lstack-):
sysuse auto,clear
lstack trunk turn mpg, into(var) clear
graph hbar (mean) var , over(_stack) scheme(s1mono) legend(off)
