Extra row appear in my jsp page after the Submit button is pressed

Sun, 11 Mar 2018 19:34:28 -0700 

I am debugging my test program.
When my test page http://localhost:8080/Struts2Example/updatePerson
appeared in the browser, it displayed
A
B
C
in its own textfield and a Submit button, which is expected.

However, after I edited the textfields and pressed the Submit button.
The following appeared in the browser.
Name :A
Name :Aa
Name :Bb
Name :Cc

I do not understand why an extra row (Name :A) appeared in the top with the
rest of the names which I just entered.

The following source codes is my test program.
