Get name of command button

        self.firstlabel .grid(row=1, column=1, sticky=tk.W)

        self.firstcommandbutton = tk.Button(self.firstframe, text="firstcommandbutton", bg=otherbutcol, font=myfont,
                                     relief="groove", command=self.Second)
        self.firstcommandbutton.config(height=myheight, width=mywidth)

    def First(self):
        self.firstframe = tk.Frame(self.root)
        self.firstframe.grid(row=0, column=0)


        self.firstlabel = tk.Label(self.firstframe, text="firstlabel ", bg=labcol, font=myfont, relief="groove")
        self.firstlabel .config(height=myheight, width=mywidth)

        self.firstcommandbutton = tk.Button(self.firstframe, text="firstcommandbutton", bg = otherbutcol, font=myfont,
                                     relief="groove", command=self.Second)
        self.firstcommandbutton.config(height=myheight, width=mywidth)
        self.firstcommandbutton.grid(row=2, column=1, sticky=tk.W)
        self.quitbn = tk.Button(self.firstframe, text="Quit", font=myfont, bg="red", relief="groove",
                                command=self.firstframe.quit)
        self.quitbn.config(height=myheight, width=mywidth)
        self.quitbn.grid(row=3, column=1, sticky=tk.W)


    def Second (self):

        print("It worked")

m = Main(root)

root.mainloop()
This code creates a command button called "firstcommandbutton". This button calls the method "Second". Can I create code in Second, that gives me the name of the firstcommandbutton, and reads it into a variable.? If that is not possible can I get the text of the firstcommandbutton?
