I shared a web page via Safari (8 on Yosemite) once. Now the last recipient shows up in the menu. How can I delete it from there? See picture for how it looks.

This was a long time ago, but I found out how to delete the recently shared items and haven't answered yet. So here is how it goes:
Delete the plist file:
Old: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.sharekit.recents.plist
New: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.preferences.extensions.ShareMenu.plist
I forgot when exactly macOS changed the file location, and maybe both file are present after an upgrade.
You can use
plutil -convert xml1 <filename>to convert the plist into a human-readable XML format if you want to inspect it.
