I am trying to test the name of the current element as shown below.

You can get name of an element using name() or local-name() function. But for testing purposes it's safer to use self::foobar pattern.

However I need to process them a second time differently:
<xsl:for-each select="CoordGeom/*">
  <xsl:if test="position()=1">
    M <xsl:call-template name="getStart" />
  </xsl:if>
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test=".=Line"> <!-- something like this -->

<xsl:when test="self::Line">
