You'll need to add a helper column to create a proper Excel date number i.e. in F2 down
=DATE(E3,C3,D3)
Then sort B3:F9 by column F Date as the first sort column - and by name if you want names on the same date in alphabetical order

Sorry but I realized my ask was not clear. I am looking for a formula which will sort dynamically as data changes….
You can use a couple of helper columns:
F3: =DATE(E3,C3,D3)
which will give the proper date,
G3: =RANK(F3,F$3:F$9,1)+COUNTIF(F$3:F3,F3)-1
which will then rank the dates in ascending order (and account for duplicates, if any).
Copy down to the bottom of your data. Then you can use this formula in I3:
=INDEX(B:B,MATCH(ROWS($1:1),$G:$G,0))
Copy across and down as required.
Hope this helps.

Hi
As you have office 365, you can use the SORTBY function.
=SORTBY(B3:E9,DATE(E3:E9,C3:C9,D3:D9),1)

I forgot to add, convert your data to a table, the SORTBY function will be then be dynamic.
