You can use :symbol as the first argument.

<%= simple_form_for :user, url: users_path do |f| %>   <%= f.input :name, as: :string %>   ... <% end %> 

It will output something like this:

<form novalidate="novalidate" class="simple_form user" action="/users" accept-charset="UTF-8" method="post">   ...   <div class="input string required user_name">     <label class="string required" for="user_name">       <abbr title="required">*</abbr> Name     </label>     <input class="string required" type="text" name="user[name]" id="user_name" />   </div>   ... </form>
