Channels: list has an Id parameter combined with snippet returns the title of the channel.

id string The id parameter specifies a comma-separated list of the YouTube channel ID(s) for the resource(s) that are being retrieved. In a channel resource, the id property specifies the channel's YouTube channel ID.

GET https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=snippet&id=UC_x5XG1OV2P6uZZ5FSM9Ttw&key={YOUR_API_KEY}

Note: this is a public call to the api so you can do this with an API key and there is no need to use Oauth2.
