Write to cell B1 =a1 and custom format it as dddd >> copy down.
or
Write to cell B1 =text(a1,"dddd") >> copy down
or
of course, You could see day with Your A-column too
 
This doesn't really need a formula, merely a change of number format. To copy the date to another cell is simply
= A1
or, using a defined name 'date',
= date
The number format to be applied to column B is then
dddd
To turn this into text one could use
= TEXT(date, "dddd")

Another option is to apply the number format
ddd* d-mmm-yyyy
to the original cell to display day and date in a single cell.
