To be sure I am understanding the question You are wanting Allison to be counted as 4? OR are you wanting it to flag with a 1 if the name is duplicated? If the first Try this formula.
=COUNTIFS(Name:Name, Name@row)
If the second you can use that same formula with in an IF function.
=IF(COUNTIFS(Name:Name, Name@row) > 1, 1)
Column 2 uses the first formula, Column 3 the second.

I'm doing a data Report just need to count how many people have no show/out within this year not how many times they no show/out. I have the formula for that. I just need how many people who missed/no show. So for Alison who no show 4x I just need to count her as 1. Hopefully this is helpful explained. Thank you!
