The ismember function is usually reliable in these situations —

C = {'abc';'def';'ghi';'ghi';'ghi';'jkl';'mno';'pqr'}

C = 8×1 cell array
    {'abc'}
    {'def'}
    {'ghi'}
    {'ghi'}
    {'ghi'}
    {'jkl'}
    {'mno'}
    {'pqr'}

TF = ismember(C,'ghi')

TF = 8×1 logical array
   0
   0
   1
   1
   1
   0
   0
   0

Cnew = C(~TF,:)

Cnew = 5×1 cell array
    {'abc'}
    {'def'}
    {'jkl'}
    {'mno'}
    {'pqr'}

.

use

names(ismember(names(:,1),'Australia'),:)=[];
