<?php
// This returns an array of objects
$term = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'custom_tax_name' );

// If you need all of them, then store the things you need in a array,
// otherwise you can just break the loop after one iteration
foreach ($term as $key => $obj) {
	$tax_name = $obj->name;
	$tax_slug = $obj->slug;

	break; // break out so we only get the first one
