How can I copy files with duplicate filenames into one directory and retain both files by having the duplicate(s) rename automatically? - Ask Ubuntu

On windows OS, when you copy a file into a directory that already has a file with that name, it asks you whether you want to:

• copy the file and replace/overwrite the existing one
• cancel copying the new file into the directory
• copy the file, but rename it (as something like "filename - copy (1)")

When I do this in Ubuntu, I don't have that 3rd option (which is a lot of times a very useful option). Is there any way to be able to do that in Ubuntu?
