Is there a way to search database name using table name. Please help.

Thanks in Advance.

What I have tried:

SELECT name FROM sys.databases WHERE CASE WHEN state_desc = 'ONLINE' THEN OBJECT_ID(QUOTENAME(name) + '.[dbo].[TableName]', 'U') END IS NOT NULL

but the above code is not working.
Please help.

SQL

SELECT DISTINCT  DB_NAME(database_id)
FROM [sys].[dm_db_index_operational_stats](NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL) 
WHERE OBJECT_NAME(object_id,database_id) = 'Your Table Name'
