Count unique

I have a spreadsheet containing a list of names. Many names are repeated. I
need to count the number of unique names in the list. Anyone got a formula
for me?

Thanks!

Hi,

If your list of names was in A1:A5 then this:

=SUM(1/COUNTIF($A$1:$A$5,A1:A5)

entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter is an array formula that works.
