counting the number of lines

Hello,

I have afile which begins with a few urls on multiple lines and then there is listing of some information on separate lines.

The listing begins with the word Name on a given line followed by teh actual list.

I want to count the number of lines in this file after the line having this "Name ' word.

wc -l gives me the total number of lines while i want onlly the number of lines after the line having "Name " in it.

I would appreciate a response.

Nayeem
