Can there be more than one row for a given name? Assuming that that is not the case, i.e., there is only one row for any one name:
UPDATE t1 SET
	Class = t2.Class,
	Number = t2.Number
FROM
	Table1 t1
	INNER JOIN Table2 t2 ON
		t1.name = t2.name;

Yes you can.

SELECT t1.*
--UPDATE t1 SET
-- Class = t2.Class,
-- Number = t2.Number
FROM
Table1 t1
INNER JOIN Table2 t2 ON
t1.name = t2.name
WHERE <place your condition(s) here>

Try first with SELECT and it pulls the required data.. then use udpate query .

Cheers
