When using Visual Studio to run your tests if you add a TestContext property in your test class you can get this information easily.

[TestClass]
public class MyTestClass
{
    public TestContext TestContext { get; set; }

    [TestInitialize]
    public void setup()
    {
        logger.Info(" SETUP " + TestContext.TestName);
        // .... //
    }
}
