if you want infos from the actual running batchfile, try this :

@echo off
set myNameFull=%0
echo myNameFull     %myNameFull%
set myNameShort=%~n0
echo myNameShort    %myNameShort%
set myNameLong=%~nx0
echo myNameLong     %myNameLong%
set myPath=%~dp0
echo myPath         %myPath%
set myLogfileWpath=%myPath%%myNameShort%.log
echo myLogfileWpath %myLogfileWpath%

%0 = parameter 0 = batchfile %1 = parameter 1 - 1st par. passed to batchfile... so you can try that stuff (e.g. "~dp") between 1st (e.g. "%") and last (e.g. "1") also for parameters
