How would you avoid not to mention here ?
"The guy, not to mention his name, ...."

Thank you

To avoid it, just don't use it! I'm not sure what you're trying to say. It's hard to tell, since you haven't given us a whole sentence, but I don't think you're using "not to mention" in the ordinary way.

Not to mention is 'used to introduce extra information and emphasize what you are saying: He has two big houses in the country, not to mention his villa in France' (OALD).
