Populating Data based on another cell

Is there a way to populate what is recorded in a cell given what is in a different cell? Not a formula with numbers, but data. Example
Column 1 = John Smith, Then Column 2 would automatically populate ABC
Column 1 = Jane Doe, Then Column 2 would automatically populate XZY.
Not sure if there is an automation or a formula that will achieve this.

I hope you're well and safe!
Yes, you could use a Workflow with the Record a Date action.
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!
