Chrome shows a password suggestions for an input field

Question

I have one input field with type text and jQuery Datepicker. A weird thing happening is that when I click on that input field, chrome shows a password suggestion.

<input name="registration" type="text" placeholder="MM.JJJJ">

When I remove the name then it stops suggesting passwords.

@User863 autocomplete is stopping input suggestions but not password suggestions — Ikt, Aug 20 '19 at 12:20
@SureshPonnukalai how can you get the op's autofill in the fiddle? — User863, Aug 20 '19 at 12:21
@Ikt may be the `name` attribute is same with any other password fields. try changing it — User863, Aug 20 '19 at 12:23
Wiat, this isn't a password field? This makes no sense, we're going to need a [mcve] — Liam, Aug 20 '19 at 12:27

Do you have a input before that one, called something like email or username?

I've seen Chrome look at an input field and decide all by it's self that the field after it is a password field, and try to autocomplete it.

You have to add autocomplete="disabled"

Chrome stopped supporting autocomplete="off" that's why autocomplete="off" isn't working but it doesn't understand if you use autocomplete="disabled" that's why this works for now
