tail -n +1 trapetz simpson will print each file with a leading header giving the file name. nl trapetz simpson prints line numbers but no file names. You'll need to use either awk or some shell glue to combine the two.

for x in trapetz simpson; do
  echo "$x: $(wc -c <"$x") bytes"
  nl "$x"
done

Here's an awk solution which prints the byte count at the bottom:

awk '
    FNR == 1 && NR != 1 {print "end", fn, chars, "characters"; bytes=0}
    END {print "end", fn, chars, "characters"}
    FNR == 1 {print "begin", FILENAME; fn=FILENAME}
    1 {chars += 1 + length; printf "%7d ", FNR; print}
