Accepted Answer

You are using StandardTokenizerFactory, which adheres to Word Boundary rules.

This would mean that your words get split on spaces.

if you want a real exact match, i.e

`Richard Chase` to return documents containing only `Richard Chase` exactly, then you should you KeywordTokenizerFactory.

But as you mention, you want Richard John Chase but not Johnny Chase, it tells me that you want matches for Richard and Chase.

You could either search for `Richard AND Chase` or change your default operator in `schema.xml` to be `AND` instead of `OR`. Beware that this setting is global.
