It looks like you are working with Pivot Table. I'm not sure if data model is available on Mac, if so you may add calculated column with ID into the model and use it. For such sample
such column could be calculated as
=
CALCULATE (
COUNTA ( Table1[N] ),
FILTER ( Table1, Table1[D] = EARLIER ( Table1[D] ) ),
Table1[N] <= EARLIER ( Table1[N] )
)
If not, perhaps you may add helper column to the source data calculating unique names ID for each datetime.
