I have multiple menu items sharing the same OnClick Event, how can I get
the name and/or the caption of the menu item from the sender:TObject?

if Sender = MenuItem1 then
        //do stuff here
if Sender = MenuItem2 then
        //do other stuff

where MenuItem1 and MenuItem2 are the Names of the menu items.

Cast the Sender parameter to the correct type...

Label1.Caption := (Sender as TMenuItem).Caption;

(Or you could just check if Sender=MenuItem1 if you're just trying to
 decide which menu item was clicked - but be 'generic' if you can)

if Sender is TMenu then
 begin
  if Sender(TMenu).Name = 'NameInQuestion' then
   Sender(TMenu).Caption := 'NewValue';
 end;{if}

I believe that's right ...
