Have your database handle that, not PHP.

When you create your table, make the combo of Name and Country unique.

CREATE TABLE your_table {
        Name VARCHAR(15),
        Country VARCHAR(15),
        UNIQUE Name_Country (Name, Country)
}

Then you can have "Jackson, USA", "Jackson, UK", "Someone Else, USA",
etc...just not the same combination at all.
