Sum of Count of distinct occurence for each distinct ID

Hello, I'm struggelling with a problem since more than 16 hours now...
I have 2 table with many to many link  between Name and ArticleCode
Name table look like that

NameID
xxx1234
xxx2514
bbb1234
bbb3569
aaa1234


ArticleCode table:

ArticleCodeID
aaaaaaaaaa1234
ssssssssssss1234
aaaaaaaaaa3569
bbbbbbbb2514

 

I would like to count the number of unique ArticleCode found for each unique Name and sum it in one measure to be display in a card.
Any ideas how to do it ? I'd try distinctcount, sum, sumx, count and various combination already...

@eehp What's the answer for the supplied data? I get 7 using this:

Measure = SUMX(SUMMARIZE('Table',[Name],"__Count",COUNTROWS(DISTINCT('Table2'[ArticleCode]))),[__Count])

For the supplied data it's 7 yes. I'll check on the whole dataset and valide the answer if correct but it's look promising to me 😄
