for just menu item text in title case you can add code in your xml file

  <bool name="abc_config_actionMenuItemAllCaps">false</bool>

For changing text color, try this, I have not tested but it should work:

<android.support.design.widget.NavigationView
        android:id="@+id/navigation_view"
        android:background="#000"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_gravity="start"
        app:headerLayout="@layout/header"
        app:itemTextColor="your color"
        app:menu="@menu/your menu file" />

If you are using AppCompat_v7 action bar backport, you'll need to use both:

android:showAsAction and app:showAsAction as always.

Check this link: Items not showing in the ActionBar with showAsAction=“always”

And you need to use setTitle and not name like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
    <item
        android:id="@+id/ok"
        app:showAsAction="always"
        android:title="Action1" />
    <item
        android:id="@+id/cancel"
        app:showAsAction="always"
        android:title="Action2" />
</menu>

Then, Here is the result:

You need to set android:title property rather than android:text for the declared menu items.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
    <item android:id="@+id/ok" android:title="action1" app:showAsAction="" />
    <item android:id="@+id/cancel" android:title="action2"  app:showAsAction="ifRoom" />
</menu>

Use below menu file -

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto">
    <item android:id="@+id/ok" app:showAsAction="always"
        android:title="Action1" />
    <item android:id="@+id/cancel" app:showAsAction="always"
        android:title="Action2" />
</menu>

You need to set android:title="action2".
