Compare columns and replace name from other row

Hello together,

 

I have a Problem and hope you can help me.

I want to compare rows. If the A-Number and the B-Number is same, then replace all names to a similar Name. In my example I want that the name in row 2,3,7,8 calls A. And the Name of the  5,6 calls C.

You can get the name in a new column. but only min or max name as per this logic

 

 

//Edited
new name = minx(filter(table,table[A-number]=earlier(table[A-number]) && table[B-number]=earlier(table[B-number])),table[Name])
new name = maxx(filter(table,table[A-number]=earlier(table[A-number]) && table[B-number]=earlier(table[B-number])),table[Name])
