I have field called "My Name", there's available same value for example :  
[1] Smith  
[2] Jason  
[3] Pedro  
[4] Rossi  
[5] James  
[6] Smith  
[7] Jason  
[8] James

In kibana (scripted field), how can i count the same document (not specific using where clause) that the result i want just like :

- Smith = 2
- Jason = 2
- Pedro = 1
- Rossi = 1
- James = 2

I know that the operation can use visualisation to count same doc value, but i want to create scripted field so i can get sum total value of "My Name" where having count more than 1.  
And the final result is : 6 (hope anyone can understand).

Can somebody help?

Hi  
You can't do this with scripted fields, but you can do this using Canvas in Kibana, have a look, here's something similar using our ecommerce demo data:
