Naming a Company
<p>You are given an array of strings <code>ideas</code> that represents a list of names to be used in the process of naming a company. The process of naming a company is as follows:</p>

<ol>
	<li>Choose 2 <strong>distinct</strong> names from <code>ideas</code>, call them <code>idea<sub>A</sub></code> and <code>idea<sub>B</sub></code>.</li>
	<li>Swap the first letters of <code>idea<sub>A</sub></code> and <code>idea<sub>B</sub></code> with each other.</li>
	<li>If <strong>both</strong> of the new names are not found in the original <code>ideas</code>, then the name <code>idea<sub>A</sub> idea<sub>B</sub></code> (the <strong>concatenation</strong> of <code>idea<sub>A</sub></code> and <code>idea<sub>B</sub></code>, separated by a space) is a valid company name.</li>
	<li>Otherwise, it is not a valid name.</li>
</ol>

<p>Return <em>the number of <strong>distinct</strong> valid names for the company</em>.</p>

<p><strong class="example">Example 1:</strong></p>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> ideas = [&quot;coffee&quot;,&quot;donuts&quot;,&quot;time&quot;,&quot;toffee&quot;]
<strong>Output:</strong> 6
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The following selections are valid:
- (&quot;coffee&quot;, &quot;donuts&quot;): The company name created is &quot;doffee conuts&quot;.
- (&quot;donuts&quot;, &quot;coffee&quot;): The company name created is &quot;conuts doffee&quot;.
- (&quot;donuts&quot;, &quot;time&quot;): The company name created is &quot;tonuts dime&quot;.
- (&quot;donuts&quot;, &quot;toffee&quot;): The company name created is &quot;tonuts doffee&quot;.
- (&quot;time&quot;, &quot;donuts&quot;): The company name created is &quot;dime tonuts&quot;.
- (&quot;toffee&quot;, &quot;donuts&quot;): The company name created is &quot;doffee tonuts&quot;.
Therefore, there are a total of 6 distinct company names.

The following are some examples of invalid selections:
- (&quot;coffee&quot;, &quot;time&quot;): The name &quot;toffee&quot; formed after swapping already exists in the original array.
- (&quot;time&quot;, &quot;toffee&quot;): Both names are still the same after swapping and exist in the original array.
- (&quot;coffee&quot;, &quot;toffee&quot;): Both names formed after swapping already exist in the original array.
