Filter name column to the desired sheet name and then do the necessary transformations. Repeat the steps, this time in another query, for the other sheet name. So you will have about 26-27 queries using following this approach (25 queries to append + 2 reference queeries for sheets A and B) vs about 50 queries (25 queries each for sheets A and B).
