Finding duplicate values in MySQL

Do a SELECT with a GROUP BY clause. Let's say name is the column you want to find duplicates in:
SELECT name, COUNT(*) c FROM table GROUP BY name HAVING c > 1;
This will return a result with the name value in the first column, and a count of how many times that value appears in the second
