How to get the ending of the url address?

Hello everyone!
I am wondering how I can access the ending of my url address.
For exampel: www.castingvault.eu/willy
And I wand the name "willy" only and then process and use it in my php code.

Usually you write the url like this:
www.castingvault.eu/members.php?mem=willy
and the following is how to access it.

$mem = $_GET['mem'];

Then you access the username: willy.

Can anyone help please
Thank you!
