From you question, I'm assuming that the table's data source array simply contains NSString objects for the names, instead of instances of a data model class.

Why don't you create a data model class that would a have a "name" field as well as a "personID" field. The "personID" field would hold an unique value (perhaps a number); no two instances of the data model class would have the same "personID" value. Your table's data source array would contain instances of the data model class (instead of simply NSString). Each of the "thousands of names" would become thousands of instances of the model class, and you would have a unique identifier for each name. Data model instance objects could have duplicated names, but the "personID" would always be unique and never repeated.
