Accepted answer
List list = new List();
list.Add("sun");
list.Add("moon");
list.Add("Alpha");
list.Add("Sun");
list.Add("Sun");
list.Add("Moon");

var Words=list.GroupBy(x=>x.ToLower()).Select(x=>new {asdsa=x.Key,Count=x.Count()});

this is little bit crude, please refine according to your needs
List wordCount = new List();
            wordCount.Add("sun");
            wordCount.Add("moon");
            wordCount.Add("Alpha");
            wordCount.Add("Sun");
            wordCount.Add("Sun");
            wordCount.Add("Moon");


            Dictionary display = new Dictionary();

            for (int count = 0; count < wordCount.Count; count++)
            {
                List results = wordCount.FindAll(
                            delegate(string Name)
                            {
                                return Name.ToUpper().Equals(wordCount[count].ToUpper());
                            }
                            );

                if (!display.ContainsKey(wordCount[count].ToUpper()))
                {
                    display.Add(wordCount[count].ToUpper(), results.Count);
                }
            }

            foreach (string item in display.Keys)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(item + " count = " + display[item].ToString());
            }
