Sorry, there were a couple typos in my earlier response:
> %count = ();
> foreach $element (@array1) { $count{$element}++ }
I should've included the semicolon at the end of the second line.
> Your array of unique names is now available from the keys of %count;
> the number of occurences of each unique name is available as the value
> of %count{$name}.
The "%count{$name}" above should be $count{$name}.

not best,
