Slightly simpler:

="BLOMN - " & LOWER(LEFT(A1,1)) & LOWER(B1) & " - 7945_UDP"

Chris
In fact a bit simpler still:

="BLOMN - " & LOWER(LEFT(A1,1) & B1) & " - 7945_UDP"

Chris
oops, what I posted? does not make sense, but it does what he wants :)

it should be this.

C1: ="BLOMN - " & LEFT(LOWER(A1),1) & LOWER(B1) & " - 7945_UDP"

I guessed firs I understood get a part from B and add it to first letter of A
