use this method maybe useful

public static T Deserialise<T>(string json)
{
    T obj = Activator.CreateInstance<T>();
    using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(json)))
    {
        DataContractJsonSerializer serializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(obj.GetType());
        obj = (T)serializer.ReadObject(ms); // 
        return obj;
    } 
}

Also, just for reference, here is the Serialize method :

public static string Serialize<T>(T obj)
{
    DataContractJsonSerializer serializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(obj.GetType());
    using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
    {
        serializer.WriteObject(ms, obj);
        return Encoding.Default.GetString(ms.ToArray());
    }
}

public static dynamic Deserialize(string content)
{
return new System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer().DeserializeObject(content);
}

var f = Deserialize(json);
List<Name> list = new List<Name>();

foreach(var item1 in (Dictionary<string, object>) f)
{
Dictionary<string, object> item2 = (Dictionary<string, object>) item1.Value;

list.Add( new Name(){
    id = (int) item2["id"],
    name = (string) item2["name"],
    age = (int) item2["age"]
});             

}

This code also working fine ...
