What should be done if the element name is in an attribute or variable, as
<variable name="name" select=" 'attribution' "/>

Can name() be avoided here also?

Yes it must be avoided because you have to use both local-name() and namespace-uri() in order to break apart the qualified name of the node into its components and compare each of those:

<xsl:apply-templates
     select="*[not(local-name()=$name and namespace-uri()=$ns)]"/>

Both are needed in the general case, not just local-name(), because the user might be using the default namespace. In that case the local part might compare equal but the URI could be different.

I hope this helps.
