ArchivesSearching by Letters
Not sure where to out this, but I have a question about the advanced search feature.
How do I search for names with specific letters, but not in a specific order? Like if I wanted to search for names with C and R. I'd want results like: Charlie, Claire, Rebecca, Veronica, etc.
What about even more letters? Example AEILR: Gabriel, Gabrielle, Galadriel, Tauriel, Ariel, Arielle, Elisaria, etc

The search function allows for wildcards, so with the following two search you can cover names containing at least one C and one R:
*c*r* and *r*c*
For more letters there are more permutations to try. The search does not have full regex power.
