Thanks both for your thoughts, as you say Matt, using the index is a bit daft, I hadn’t thought of it in that way.

I think at the heart of it this relates to [Unique data fields - Ideas & Features - Fibery Community](https://community.fibery.io/t/unique-data-fields/695/5) which is eloquently expressed.

As a general aside - Using a formula for the name is powerful, but it would be incredible to be able to combine both the user inputted data and the power of the formula.
