A Click event has a sender parameter, which is the clicked button. You could use the name of the button to resolve which form should be opened.

To get your button in the click event:

Button clickedButton = (Button)sender;

To get the parent of your button (if it was SplitContainer, you'll have to use Parent property 3 times, because the first one will get you your UserControl, second - left panel of the SplitPanel, which doesn't have a Name property, third - your SplitPanel, and 4th, if you want, your form name)

string splitPanemName = clickedButton.Parent.Parent.Parent.Name;

...or you can just get whole SplitPanel object:

SplitPanel currentSplitPanel = (SplitPanel)clickedButton.Parent.Parent.Parent;

...or Form object:

Form currentSplitForm = (Form)clickedButton.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent;

To do this, you have to be sure of the composition of your Form, so you can get the right controls at the right place.
