If you have a long term need for this requirement, you might want to look into full text search . Short of this, MySQL offers a REGEXP operator which can do some fairly complex regex searching. To search the name column for both Due and John we can try:

SELECT id, name, city
FROM yourTable
WHERE name REGEXP '[[:<:]]John[[:>:]]' AND name REGEXP '[[:<:]]Due[[:>:]]';

To search for Due or John , then we can use an alternation:

SELECT id, name, city
FROM yourTable
WHERE name REGEXP '[[:<:]](John|Due)[[:>:]]';
