How to label scatterplot points by name?

Question

I am trying to figure out how to get labels to show on either Google sheets, Excel, or Numbers.

I have information that looks like this

name|x_val|y_val

For all those who don't have the option in Excel (like me), there is a macro which works and is explained here: https://www.get-digital-help.com/2015/08/03/custom-data-labels-in-x-y-scatter-chart/ Very useful
