bash adding multiple names

Hi all,
I make this bash script in which there is one option to add a name in txt file. So when I run the script it ask me for the name. When i enter the name, that name gets added in a txt file. If i add the same name again, the message comes up, the name is already there

My question is.. if i want to add same name multiple times, how can i do that, and when i delete the name only one name gets deleted

for example

in txt file there is a name sam, now what i want is when i enter same again in the script, in txt file it should show up as 2 sam or 3 sam and so on. when i delete same in script it delete one same. if 2 sam are there after using delte in txt file it should have 1 sam.

Thanks
