How get the name of a category associated with an item was created by erc

I'm quite new to this, and I'm working on a template, which is a copy of the default template.

So, I'm working with category_items.php and I'm trying to figure out how to get the category for each item that is being listed.

Code:

<ul>	
  <?php foreach ($this->items as $item) : ?>
    <li><?php echo $this->escape($item->categories->name); ?>
    	<?php if ($this->params->get('link_titles', 0)) : ?>
    	[url=<?php echo JRoute::_(FlexicontentHelperRoute::getItemRoute($item->slug, $this->category->slug)); ?>]<?php echo $this->escape($item->title); ?>[/url]
    	<?php
    	else :
    	echo $this->escape($item->title);
    	endif;
    	?>
    </li>
  <?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
