Unify messy hand-typed names in Python + Excel: run once to group similar spellings into columns, edit them (last value = target), run again to fix every value. Fuzzy matching, transliteration. Hayrate survey case study.
Summary
A Python/Excel workflow for unifying messy hand-typed names in survey and business data. It normalizes, transliterates, and fuzzy-groups similar spellings into editable columns, then replaces all variants with a human-chosen target name on a second run. Built around rapidfuzz and pandas, with a Hayrate survey case study.
