Standarize Column Using Common Data of Other Column

Hi People. I have the dataset attached. My challenge is to find a way to avoid the column Employee Name to have different Data when Column Emp Init is the same. In this case I have Emp Init = MT1 but Employee Name has different results:

 

Report

Emp Init

Employee Name

TRUNK001

MT1

PELLETIER, MIA

TRUNK001

MT1

PELLETIER, MIA

TRUNK001

MT1

PELLETIER, MIA

TRUNK001

MT1

PELLETIER, MIA

TRUNK001

MT1

PELLETIER, MIA

TRUNK001

MT1

PELLETIER-THERRIEN

TRUNK001

MT1

PELLETIER, MIA

 

I want to change Employee Name to PELLETIER, MIA as it is the one with more results, but I don't want to hardcoded I would like to have a formula or expression that can work for any other future situation like this. I'm aware that the best way is to request a clean data from stakeholder but I'm in a rush and would like to find a shortcut if possible.

 

I really appreciate the support you can provide.
