Just change the $FinalFilename:

$FinalFilename = pathinfo($OriginalFilename, PATHINFO_FILENAME) . '_' . $FileCounter++ . '.' . pathinfo($OriginalFilename, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);

Or (better if you have a lot of files with the same name and often iterate more than once):

$filename = pathinfo($OriginalFilename, PATHINFO_FILENAME);
$extension =  pathinfo($OriginalFilename, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
while (file_exists( 'uploads/'.$FinalFilename ))
    $FinalFilename = $filename . '_' . $FileCounter++ . '.' . $extension;
