You could make use of virsh to convert domU name to id. Something like this:

On dom0:
# virsh domid domUname
41
# DOMU_ID=`virsh domid domUname`
# xenstore-write /local/domain/${DOMU_ID}/my-data "test-data"
# xenstore-read /local/domain/${DOMU_ID}/my-data
test-data

on domU:
# xenstore-read my-data
test-data
