I need to extract the same names from 4 columns. Example:
A B C D
1 Arnold Lulu Benoit John
2 Boyd John Dennis Henry
3 Cutter Suzie Lafave Lily
4 Fleming Ruth Manning John
5 Manning John Norman Henrietta
6 O'Sully Peter O'Sully Mark
In this simple example, only one full name comes up, it's Manning, John.
How would I do this in Excel?

How you consider/detect only Manning, John is full name? Why not Boyd John or Benoit John?

Use FILTER() function with XMATCH(). See the attach file.
=FILTER(A1:B6,ISNUMBER(XMATCH(A1:A6&B1:B6,C1:C6&D1:D6,0)))
