Default looking up names in a list

Use a help column and a formula like

=COUNTIF($A$2:$A$100,A1)=2

copy down, apply datafilterautofilter and filter on help column and TRUE

another approach, select list, do datafilteradvanced filer, copy to
another location and unique records only
that will create a list with names only appearing once, in an adjacent cell
put

=COUNTIF($A$2:$A$100,H2)

where H2 is the first unique named of the filtered list, copy down and
you'll get the occurrences of the names next to each name

I have a worksheet which contains a list of names. Some names appear once,
some twice, some three times and so on. I would like a formula that would
return a list of all the names that appear say twice.

Anyone got any ideas?
