Power Query Help - removing values in one column if they appear in another

[User57639205]

I have some nomination data, which includes nominee name and nomination comment. For data protection purposes i am not allowed to include any personal details in my dashboard. I would ideally like to produce a word cloud or similar showing common nominations reasons but i dont want to include the names which nominators have included  in the comment section. 

Nominee Name	Nomination Comment
John Smith	John Smith is supportive and patient leader

Where Nominee Name is present in Nomination Comment, is there a way to remove it?

Thanks

Is this the result you expect?
