ShingleFilterFactory[1] plus TermsComponent[2] can give you grouped (phrases) keywords. You need to create an extra field (populate it via copyField) that constructs shingles (token n-grams). After that you can retrieve those trigram or bi-gram tokens starting with callaway. solr/terms?terms=true&terms.fl=yourNewField&terms.prefix=Callaway [1]http://wiki.apache.org/solr/TermsComponent [2]http://wiki.apache.org/solr/AnalyzersTokenizersTokenFilters#solr.ShingleFilterFactory
