You probably don't really want this but the way to get the NAME of a
given menu item is gtk_widget_get_name ((GtkWidget *) your_menu_item);

If you want to access the contents (i.e. label / text) of a menu item
see

If that also isn't what you're looking for then I'm sorry for not
understanding your question properly.
