Try this function to get product category name

function get_product_category_by_id( $category_id ) {
    $term = get_term_by( 'id', $category_id, 'product_cat', 'ARRAY_A' );
    return $term['name'];
}
$product_category = get_product_category_by_id( $your_category_id );

Hope this will be useful.

you can use something like this

$product_cats = wp_get_post_terms( your_id, 'product_cat' );

Please, let me know whether it helps.

print_r($product_cats);

do you have product id instead of category id? – Yogesh Pawar Apr 03 '14 at 13:33
if you can use the product id in the given function then you get all the details of the category.. – Yogesh Pawar Apr 03 '14 at 13:54

You can use wp_get_post_terms to get category id of any product like this :

$term_list = wp_get_post_terms($product_id, 'product_cat', array('fields' => 'ids'));

I am just fetching id's of categories assigned to the particular product, You can fetch name also.

Hope this will be useful.
