I should think a key using the initial letter of each name would be a big help:
<xsl:key name="person-by-initial" match="person" use="substring(@name,1,1)"/> Then "key('person-by-initial', 'A')" would get you back the elements for Anthony, Amy and the other Amy, and "key('person-by-initial', 'A')[1]" would get you just Anthony. //person[count(.|key('person-by-initial', @name)[1]) = 1] gets you all person elements that are first with their initial. In other words, the usual grouping stuff.
