Note you never need to start a match with // as it does not change the
elements matched, just the default priority.
Also using xsl:element and xsl:attribute makes it look a lot more
complicated than needed.

the above could be written

<xsl:template match="XmlNode">
  <xsl:for-each select="*">
    <XMLNode Text="{.}">
      <xsl:value-of select="anyOtherValue" />
    </XMLNode>
  </xsl:for-each>
<xsl:template>


I don't see how it relates to teh original poter's question though,
which was about the name function.

Note also that you should not have elements named XmlNode in teh input
or XMLNode in the output as element names begining with x m l in any
case are reserved for use by W3C specifications according to the XML
spec.
