# Mapping Duplicate Names Sometimes you have duplicate header names. This is handled through a header name index. The name index is the index of how many occurrences of that header name there are, not the position of the header. ###### Data ``` Id,Name,Name 1,first,last ``` ###### Example ```cs void Main() { using (var reader = new StreamReader("path\\to\\file.csv")) using (var csv = new CsvReader(reader, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)) { csv.Context.RegisterClassMap(); var records = csv.GetRecords(); } } public class Foo { public int Id { get; set; } public string FirstName { get set; } public string LastName { get; set; } } public sealed class FooMap : ClassMap { public FooMap() { Map(m => m.Id); Map(m => m.FirstName).Name("Name").NameIndex(0); Map(m => m.LastName).Name("Name").NameIndex(1); } } ```
