You also can use PROC SQL or PROC MEANS:

proc sql;

create table want as

select distinct name,

count(name) as count_names

from have

group by name;

quit;

proc means data=have;

class name;

output out=want

     (where=name ne ' '

     drop=_type_

     rename=_freq_=count_names);

run;

data_null__

Check the documentation regarding the NWAY option and you won't need the where data set option.

Also check out TYPES and WAYS statements.
