Get distinct records using linq to entity

Hi I'm using linq to entity in my application. I need to get distinct records based on one column value "Name"

So I have a table similar like you can see below:

(User)
ID
Name
Country
DateCreated

I need to select all this items but uniques based on Name (unique). Is it possible to accomplish using linq, if so please show me how.

var items = (from i in user select new  {i.id, i.name, i.country, i.datecreated}).Distinct();
