title: Replace string with another string in the same list if string contains the other one
body: <p>A list has a mixture of full names and their short names. I want to expand the short names to their full name in a list like below. Eg. Pollard should be changed to Kieron Pollard and Starc should be changed to Mitchell Starc.</p>
  
  <pre><code>players = ['Pollard', 'Kieron Pollard', 'Mitchell Starc', 'Pollard', 'Starc']
  
  print(players)
  for i, s in enumerate(players):
      for p in players:
          if len(p) &gt; len(s) and s in p: # Different string
              players[i] = p
  print(players)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Output:</p>
  
  <pre><code>['Pollard', 'Kieron Pollard', 'Mitchell Starc', 'Pollard', 'Starc']
  ['Kieron Pollard', 'Kieron Pollard', 'Mitchell Starc', 'Kieron Pollard', 'Mitchell Starc']
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The above method works great. I want to know if there is a better and a efficient way of doing the same.</p>
