option 1:

<xsl:value-of select="ZipCode|PostCode"/>

xsl:value-of creates a text node using the string-value of the node that comes
first in document order, of all the nodes identified in the expression, which
in this case is the union of all ZipCode and PostCode children of the current
node.


option 2 (untested):

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
  xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
  xmlns:data="urn:dummy-non-null-ns">

  <xsl:output method="html"/>

  <!--
    This could be in an external document, if you wanted:
    Just adjust the $mappings source, below.
  --> 
  <data:sourceMappings>
    <equivalentElementNames>
      <element>DOB</element>
      <element>DateOfBirth</element>
    </equivalentElementNames>
    <equivalentElementNames>
      <element>ZipCode</element>
      <element>PostCode</element>
    </equivalentElementNames>
  </data:sourceMappings>

  <xsl:variable name="mappings"
    select="document('')/xsl:stylesheet/data:sourceMappings"/>

  <xsl:key name="equiv" match="../element" use="element"/>

  <xsl:template match="Customer">
    <table>
      <tr>
        <td>Date Of Birth:</td>
        <td>
          <xsl:call-template name="get-childElem-stringValue">
            <xsl:with-param name="childElem-name" select="'DOB'"/>
          </xsl:call-template>
        </td>
      </tr>
      <!-- (use same approach for all other rows) -->
    </table>
  </xsl:template>

  <xsl:template name="get-childElem-stringValue">
    <xsl:param name="childElem-name"/>
    <xsl:if test="childElem-name">
      <xsl:for-each select="$mappings">
        <xsl:value-of select="*[local-name()=key('equiv',$childElem-name)]"/>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </xsl:if>
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
