Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).

Hi shlaxim, welcome to the boards.

Assuming your names are in column B starting in B1, put a 1 in cell A1, then put the following formula in A2 and drag-fill down:

=IF(B2=B1,A1,A1+1)
