Adapting Aladin Akyurek's numeric searching approach to text, try this in
cell A1.

=HLOOKUP(CHAR(255),B1:IV1,1)

Then select A1 and fill it down as far as needed in column A.

Only anticipates minimum of 25 names in a row between B and Z,
but enter in A1:
=OFFSET(B1,0,COUNTA(B1:Z1)-1)
and Copy Down..
