I am trying to create a data validation list to populate a list of names into specific calendar dates. The users enter unavailable dates on a second sheet and I want the list to populate on that particular calendar date with only the staff that are available. See screen shots.

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
try this:

This lists who is available, but would it present a dropdown list to select only one?

Also, the Names and dates are on a separate sheet called Availability
