How to get the RegisterName in WPF

Question

I dynamic create the button using code like this:

private void mainArea_PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
targetPoint = e.GetPosition((IInputElement)sender);
Uid id = new Uid();
string uid = id.getUid();
_target = new Button()
{

                content = "station",

                Name = "station" + uid

            };
            Canvas.SetTop(_target, targetPoint.Y - 60);
            Canvas.SetLeft(_target, targetPoint.X - 20);
            mainArea.Children.Add(_target);
            mainArea.RegisterName(_target.Name, _target);
        }

And the "uid" is a random number, after this code i can create button on Canvas, but when i try to delete it or do something else , i found i cant get the name of the button.

so anyone can tell me how to get the name or registername of this button or the button that i click?

You can add _target.Click += _target_Click; in your mainArea_PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown event and add below code for _target_Click

 private void _target_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)  
        {  
            Button btn = sender as Button;  
            MessageBox.Show(btn.Name);  
        }
