Adobe Acrobat-Formular: How to automatically give copy pasted fields a new name

Hello I am working on a PDF form and have a question.

I have a long list with several rows.
I want to copy a row and give the fields an automatic name when I paste them. If I just copy paste it, the name stays the same. Is it possible to use a script or something similar to automate it?

Can you copy paste a field and automatically assign name with counter + 1 ? (like i++)
Can you copy paste multiple fields and automatically assign names with counter + 1?
(see screenshot)

Does something like this work? Would save me a lot of pointless work.
