Construct your template so that the last node in the node-list doesn't output the comma, thus:

<xsl:template match="//node">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="position() = last()">
      <xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>
      <xsl:value-of select="@name"/>,
    </xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
