Please provide explanation with your answers. Simply posting code does not spread knowledge of integral scripting processes which helps people understand the logic and reasoning behind your answer.

Using Players.LocalPlayer will give you a static value of either nil or the clients player, depending on if you're using it serverside or clientside. Using Players.GetPlayerFromCharacter you can get the player based on a character model which in the case of a touching part would be Part.Parent as the touching part of a character model is directly parented to the model itself.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local function onTouch(hit) -- hit being the part that touched provided by the event
    local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
    if player then -- all parts that touch might not be from character models (player is nil)
        print(player.Name, "touched")
    end
end

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(onTouch)

If the script is inside a part then... This is the script WITH debounce:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local debounce = false

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if humanoid then
      if debounce = false then
      debounce = true
        local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
        print (player.name)
        wait(2) -- 2 second debounce
        debounce = false
        end
    end
end)

Script with NO debounce

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local humanoid = hit.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
    if humanoid then
        local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
        print (player.name)
    end
end)

I hope this is helpful!
