When identifying muscles, look at the entire length of the muscle, including its tendons. Many times you will find that by looking at the origin, insertion, and its relationship to a bone, that you will be able to name it.
A good idea which will help you to learn the names of the muscles is to list the individual functions next to the name. These specific functions can be found in your textbook, but you should be able to figure a lot of them out yourself.
