Default Counting the Contents of Two Columns

Hi

I'm setting up a spreadsheet and will have two columns of text... so for
instance columns A1:A5 could contain

Andy
Bob
Chris
Dave
Eddie

while columns D1:D5 could contain
Andy
Bill
Colin
Dave
Eric

What I want to do is find a way of doing a count of the number of
occurrences a name appears across BOTH columns. I can do it down a single
column with a Pivotable, but is there an easy way to do it down multiple
columns?
