How do I get a unique list?

How do I get a unique list?

I have a "database" with a number of customer names. Most there multiple times.

I'd like to have a report to show the list of unique names and the order in which they are.

Eg. 

1 - Tom Jones
2 - Jake Smith
.
.
.
.
567 - Betty Jean

How do I create a report like that? So no name should be shown more than once
