How to store the names of Contacts into Accounts?

Is there any way to store the List of Contacts on some Field of Account?

Suppose there is a Text Area Long Field on Account where I want to store the names of all the contacts for the account.
 
How to do that?

Hi Rana,

Try this trigger on contact
  
trigger Devcomcn3 on Contact (after insert) {
    
    list <id> ids = new list<id>();
    for(contact c : trigger.new){
        ids.add(c.accountid);
    }
    list<account> accounts = [select id,name,conts2__c from account where id in :ids];
    list<account> AccountsToUpdate = new list<account>();
    system.debug('size'+accounts.size());
    for(account a : accounts){
        for(contact c : trigger.new){
            if(c.accountid == a.id){
                system.debug('equal');
                a.conts2__c +=c.lastname;
            }
        }
        AccountsToUpdate.add(a);
    }
    update AccountsToUpdate;
    
}

Let me know if you have any issues.
Mark it as best answer if it works.
