Hola! How do you sync up when editing a “Name” in Table #1 to Table #2?  
For example, when I change a name in Table #1, I would like it to be updated in Table #2 as well.

Ideally this would be handled with a Relation and Lookup. You would only write a key, such as a primary table RowID to all your secondary tables, and then have a relation and lookup that gets the name from the primary table. Then whenever you update a name in the primary table, it automatically shows the updated name in the secondary tables through the lookup.

Thank you for replying and answering my question.  
Is there a step-by-step PDF or video tutorial that I could read or watch?

I would suggest going through the Glide University to get hold of concepts like this.
