Need to lookup a value, meet horizontal criteria, return header

[laycenew]

Hi, I'm trying to lookup a value in a named table (Zoo), then search horizontally for the first match or if there is no match, the next greater number, and return the header.

Values in the columns will always increase from left to right.

Example:
Sam
7
Result: monkey

Example:
Sue
9
Result: cat

	dog	cat	bird	horse	monkey	lizard
bob	2	2	2	5	8	12
joe	1	2	7	13	20	21
sam	1	4	4	4	8	11
joy	5	8	10	10	13	17
sue	6	9	9	9	9	21

Can someone please provide a solution? ANY kind of solution or workaround is appreciated.

I've been able to Google my answers for years, but this is the first time I've ever had to ask for help! Thanks in advance...

Layce

Supposing your table starts in A1 try =INDEX($B$1:$G$1,MATCH(TRUE,INDEX($B$2:$F$6,MATCH(K1,$A$2:$A$6,0),)>=K2,0))
Formula to be committed with Ctrl+Shift+Enter
K1 contains the name and K2 the number ( adapt as needed)
