Hello! I am trying to forward fill a column in a Pandas dataframe based on a keyword. I have come up with:

pdf_df['EEName_TEST'] = pdf_df['EEName_TEST'].str.contains('Name:').ffill()

This gives me a boolean result but I still can't figure out what I'm missing to actually fill in the names and haven't been able to find a good solution yet. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
