Hey all, 

If I have two data sets that contain people's names and one uses formal first names and the other uses nicknames, how would I go about Joining these two? As an example (because football was on the mind):

 

Data Set 1:

Last Name First NameDate 300+ Passing?
RodgersAaron9/18/2017Y
BradyThomas9/18/2017Y
NewtonCameron9/18/2017N
WilsonRussell9/18/2017N

 

Data Set 2:

Last Name First NameDate 50+ Rushing?
RodgersAaron9/18/2017N
BradyTom9/18/2017N
NewtonCam9/18/2017N
WilsonRuss9/18/2017Y

 

Desired Output:

Last Name First NameDate 50+ Rushing?300+ Passing?
RodgersAaron9/18/2017NY
BradyThomas9/18/2017NY
NewtonCameron9/18/2017NN
WilsonRussell9/18/2017YN

 

Thank you for your time and I hope you all have a great day!!
