Hello,

the mistake is you have written trigger on after Insert. which is wrong for your requirement. 
It should be on before Insert and update.

see below example for your requirement.

Apex Trigger:
trigger trgCheckduplicateAccName on Account (before insert, before update) {
    Map<String, Account> AccountMap = new Map<String, Account>();    
    for (Account acc: System.Trigger.new){    
        if ((acc.Name != null) && (System.Trigger.isInsert || (acc.Name != System.Trigger.oldMap.get(acc.Id).Name))){
            if (AccountMap.containsKey(acc.Name)){        
                acc.Name.addError('Another Account has the '  + 'same Name.');        
            }else{        
                AccountMap.put(acc.Name, acc);       
            }
        }    
    }
    for (Account acc: [SELECT Name FROM Account WHERE Name IN :AccountMap.KeySet()]){  
        Account newAcc = AccountMap.get(acc.Name);        
        newAcc.Name.addError('Account with this Name already exists.');    
    }
}
