Hi Nehru,
Please try below code. But please create one integer custom field on account to store the value.

trigger AccountTrigger on Account (before update) {
    for (Account eachAccount: Trigger.new) {
        String newAccountName = (Trigger.newMap.get(eachAccount.Id)).Name;
        String oldAccountName = (Trigger.oldMap.get(eachAccount.Id)).Name;
        
        if(!newAccountName.equals(oldAccountName)){
            // you update your count Account.Custom_Count_Field
            eachAccount.custom_count_field=eachAccount.custom_count_field+1;
        }
    }
}

Regards,
Pawan Kumar
