Repeat column and multiply

by power query, I'll give an example of the tables:

Table 1

Name

Adam

Frank

Thomas



I need an M formula to add a second column that repeats all the names for each name in column 1 except itself, so it looks like this:

Name

Partner

Adam

Frank

Adam

Thomas

Frank

Adam

Frank

Thomas

Thomas

Adam

Thomas

Frank
