I want to have a counts table with different name row

I use cufflinks to make a counts table with geneID(NCBI), but I want to have a counts table with geneSymbol. And my mm10.gtf haven't a GeneSymbol column. As you know, each GeneSymbol related to several GeneID.

In my way, I make a counts table with GeneID, and use R-Mygene TO converse the column of GeneID to GeneSymbol, here is my first Question:

Could I just merge the same GeneSymbol rows? (add the counts number up)

My second question is:

If you meet these, what would you do? And where can I download the "right" gtf file?

rna-seq

You can grab the respective files from Ensembl for your organism of interest and re-run the analysis. They contain Ensembl id's and the gene names as well.

how about my first question:

Could I just merge the same GeneSymble rows? (add the counts number up)

I don't know that if it's true, "each GeneSymbol related to several GeneID..."
How does your counts table look like?
