    Duplicate find rare case

    My formula that does the work almost at 99%
    has a defect by just 1%

    =COUNTIF(A:A,A1)

    ALEX MAITERI,
    ALEX MAITERI

    It wasn't able to detect this as duplicate just because the first name had a comma sign

    Assume the names are on column a1 , formula want on cell f1 , to be able to smell that ,
    the formula should find more than two similar words and plug TRUE or else FALSE
