Counting duplicate entries and displaying it on table

Consider the table below;


I'm looking to create a measure that shows  the duplicate count on count name Id pairs without having to create the intermediate calculated column name Id pairs. 
Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

names                                 
ID                                
 name - ID Pairs                    
count name - ID pairs

Hi @giordafrancis ,

 

Create a measure

 

Duplicates =

var _a = CONCATENATE(MAX('Table'[Name]),MAX('Table'[ID]))

RETURN
COUNTX('Table',_a)

Here you go:

CountPairs = 
var __tbl = SUMMARIZE('Table';'Table'[ID];'Table'[names];"c";COUNTROWS('Table'))
return
MINX(__tbl; [c])
