I'm wondering if it's possible to get the label of some computer connected to a wired network.
I know I can get a handle to it using peripheral.wrap but I don't think I can get the label from there.
My current solution is to have one computer just ask the other computer what its label is.
Also, another unrelated question: I read that if you label your computer, destroy it, recreate one, and set the label to what it was previously all the data would be saved. Is there a way to disable this since it sort of ruins multiplayer for me?

You'd have to ask the computer for its label via rednet, and it would need software to handle replying to the request.
That's not how labels work. If you break a computer with a label and place the labeled computer again, the data (and fuel level, in turtles) will be retained. If you break a labeled computer and toss the item in lava (for example), you won't be able to get to the data on it in-game unless you can use command blocks. The server's world save will still contain all of the data that was on it.
