Compare Text between columns, one with text, one without, and return the text.

I have created a form that is for use with two separate groups, fields become available dependent on how respondents answer questions. I have a VLOOKUP formula set to pull in the address information from another sheet. Because this is used between two separate groups, there are two name fields. I am trying to compare both columns and pull in the name into a third column, which is the VLOOKUP search value.

I have tried IF(OR(ISTEXT and IF(OR(ISBLANK several times, but I am getting a variety of error messages, depending on how I write the formula.

Well, I find I didn't search quite long enough. A simple JOIN worked perfectly!
