    How to separate duplicate categories with a blank row

    Ok this may be a simple task but I have a list of names some being duplicates however I wanted to know if there was any way to insert a blank row between each different name after alphabetizing everything in the first column. It would be similar to this:

    Smith
    Smith
    Smith
    Thomas
    Thomas
    Walker
    Walker

    And I need it to look like this

    Smith
    Smith
    Smith
    *blank row*
    Thomas
    Thomas
    *blank row*
    Walker
    Walker

    I have about 20k rows so going 1 by 1 would take forever. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

    Or:
    One loop less, and to row A1.
