get selected category name on category page wordpress

I want to fetch the particular category name on the category page. For eg:- there are 5 categories.. a,b,c,d,e... so if i am viewing the category a then page should display "i am a category"... similarly if I click on b category link, the page should display "I am category b".....

In wordpress, I am not able to get the selected category name on the category page.... i.e if i have clicked on category name "face", i want to display the name face on the page and if I have clicked on the category name "hand", I want to display the name "hand" on the page.

In your theme directory, you should have a template category.php. In this template, you can display the name of the current category with the following Template Tag:

 <?php single_cat_title(); ?>
