Here's one way to do it.  There might be other, better, ways.

The snippets repository is your friend:
http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Search


\version "2.19.82"

% from snippet 197:
#(define comml    (object->string (command-line)))
#(define loc      (+ (string-rindex comml #\space ) 2)) 
#(define commllen (- (string-length comml) 2))
#(define filen    (substring comml loc commllen))                   % filename

#(define basen (basename filen))

\header {
  %title = \markup { \filen }
  title = \markup { \basen }
}

{ c'1 }
