This problem is so simple, that it doesn't ever need <xsl:number/>:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
 <xsl:output method="text"/>

	<xsl:template match="/">
	  <xsl:for-each select=
	     "*/*/*[self::name or self::nickName]">

	     <xsl:value-of select=
	       "concat('&#xA;', position(), '-', .)"/>
	  </xsl:for-each>
	</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
