It's not so tough, but will probably get implemented as part of a 
broader set of JSTL attribute alignment fixes.  For now, just 
increment a counter every time you get executed, like 

<% int i = 1; %>
<display:table name="peopleList" id="person"> 
<display:column title="Name"> 
<input value="<c:out value="${person.name}"/>" name="<%=""+ i++%>"/> 
</display:column> 
</display:table>
