Using Pivot Charts to count names

Hello,
I am trying to create a pivot chart that can count how many times a persons name shows up in a table. The problem is, some of the same names are in different columns, and I just want a total count of each person. I created a sample chart that is somewhat similar to a table I am using. Any help would be great, and let me know if I did not explain myself good enough.
Thanks,
Branden
