Hi Michael,
in our index ob bibliographic metadata, we see the need for at least
tree fields:
- name_facet: String as type, because the facet should should represent
the original inverted format from our data.
- name: TextField for searching. This field is heavily analyzed to match
different orders, to match synonyms, phonetic similarity, German umlauts
and other European stuff.
- name_lc: TextField. This field is just mapped to lower case. It's used
to boost docs with the same style of writing like the users input.

Hi,
What would be the best fieldtype for a persons name? at the moment I'm
using text_general but, if I search for bob smith, some results I get back
might be rob thomas. In that it's matched 'ob'.
But I only really want results that are either
'bob smith'
'bob, smith'
'smith, bob'
'smith bob'
Thanks
