I would recommend you to avoid the inline js. You can attach an event-listener instead:

$(document).ready(function(){
    $('input[type="button"]').on('click', function (){
        alert($(this).attr('name'));
    });
});

Demo

Reference

.attr()

The following code should work for you.

HTML

<input type="button" value="O"
       name="<?php echo $v[$i]['t']; ?>"
       onclick="javascript:test_parent(this);">

Javascript

function test_parent(input){
    var name = $(input).prop("name");
}

See a demo here http://jsfiddle.net/6georz5m/

I think this may be your answer

    $('input[type="button"]').on('click', function (){
    var name = $(this).attr('name');
alert(name);
});
