Assuming no blank cells in between the ranges

"times" is a define name range A1:A50
"names" is a define name range B1:B50

In C1:
=IF(ISERR(SMALL(IF(FREQUENCY(MATCH(times,times,0), MATCH(times,times,0))0,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&ROWS(tim es)))),ROWS($1:1))),"",INDEX(times,SMALL(IF(FREQUE NCY(MATCH(times,times,0),MATCH(times,times,0))0,R OW(INDIRECT("1:"&ROWS(times)))),ROWS($1:1))))

ctrl+shift+enter, not just enter
copy down until you see blank

In D1:
=SUM(N(FREQUENCY(IF(times=C1,MATCH(names,names,0)) ,MATCH(names,names,0))0))

ctrl+shift+enter, not just enter
copy down

I'm having a major headache over a criteria count that I cannot figure out...
Maybe someone would have a solution for me.

I have two columns of data.
A1:A50 contains time slots that may repeat an undefinite amount of times.
B1:B50 contains various names that may or may not repeat

I need to count the number of different names that appears for a specific
time slots.

Here's an example:
7:00 Apple
7:00 Apple
7:00 Carrot
7:00 Peach
7:30 Cake
7:30 Carrot
7:30 Cake

Results should be:
7:00 3
7:30 2

I was thinking that an array formula would do the trick but I just can't
figure out how do it...

Thanks for any help you may provide me with.
