Code:
awk 'END {
  for (i = 0; ++i <= NR;) {
    c[substr(r[i], length(r[i]) - 1)] > 1 && r[i] = r[i] OFS l[s[i]] 
    print r[i]
    }
  }
{  
  r[NR] = $0
  s[NR] = ++c[substr($0, length($0) - 1)]  
  }
BEGIN {  
  split("a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z", l)
  }' infile

With some awk implementations, NR may not be available in the END block,
let me know if you're using one of these.
You may need to decide what to do if your pattern exceeds the letters in the alphabet Smilie
