# Short Answer
Google Drive UI title search doesn't search for word variants and doesn't include wildcards.

# Workarounds
Some alternatives are:  

 - do a search to display all the related files, then use the browser in-page search (<kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>F</kbd>),  
 - use Google Drive for PC/Mac to be able to use the OS file search features,   
 - use a Google Apps Script / Google Drive API to list the files in a index file, then use an app with more search features, i.e. Google Sheets.

   
# Notes

  - If Google Drive search returned many results, you should scroll down before using the browser in-page search  
  - There are threads in the Google Drive Help Forum about disabling the use of the index to make the file search work for files in the Google Drive folder.
