I thought you could get this, including the full address but can't find it.
Is it possible?

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
Maybe you want
MsgBox ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Name
or
Target.Address

Target.Worksheet.Name would be better ....

Target is not necessarily in the ActiveSheet.

I was using ActiveSheet,name but am passing Target to various functions and wanted to use that,
And just remembered! Target.Parent.Name

As @Micron pointed out typically when you use Target you are using if in a Worksheet Event and it that is it the case the below will work.
VBA Code:
Me.Name

Looks the same to me, and that one is marked as solved, no less. :(
