Counting Names from a list

Hi. I would like to count the number of time a name occurs in a range. I tried using a simple pivot table but it did not work because I may not always use all of the names from the list. Also I would like to avoid using the count if formula if possible. Is there a way to use a pivot table to do this?

Thanks for the answers. This isn't quite what I am looking for. Sntneer your answer was closest, but I would like for any unused names to have a count of 0. For example, I have 14 names on the volunteer list on sheet2, and on sheet1 one I have them scheduled under may 4th, if I put 15 names, but use some twice and some not at all, I would like the count to reflect that. Also I will eventually multiple dates. I have attached a spread sheet where I manually put in the values the way I would like for them to appear on Sheet2. I have
separate sheets because I was using sheet1 as source data for a drop down list. Thanks again for the help.

That definitely gave the desired result. Is there any way to make this into a pivot table of some sort? I would eventually add more days, May 4th, May 11th, etc, and I would want the same data results. Also, I would be adding and subtracting names as time goes on. Would there be any way to build this to minimize changes in the future? Basically I am wanting a spread sheet to produce the data desired from my previous post with the flexibility to add more dates and different numbers of volunteers. Thanks for the help.
