Comparing items from 2 lists of dictionaries

[illwill]

Hey all,

I working with 2 json data sets, I've imported them into variables so that I now have 2 lists of dictionaries.

I need to check if the items in list A exist in list B. They aren't identical structures though but they do have a few things in common that I can test for, for example each dictionary has a value of name.

I've come up with this bit of code which works but I was wondering if there's a more elegant solution to this.

exists = []
for i in listA:
    for j in listB:
        if (i['name'] == j['name']):
            exists.append(i)

For the dictionaries that already exist the next step is populate another list with those excluded.

Any suggestions would be welcomed.
