For a list of elements:
https://www.behindthename.com/elements

---

From there, clicking into any of the elements will give you a list of database names that contain the element (gol, for example: https://www.behindthename.com/element/gol)

---

^ This is only for database names.

---

If you want to do this in the submissions database, you have to just search the description for the element and it won't work if the element isn't mentioned in the description. (For example: https://www.behindthename.com/submit/names/description/gul)

---

---

For names that start with/end with, use wildcards. This will work in the search in both the main database and the submissions.

---

If you want to see everything starting with Gul-, for example, search gul* this will bring you anything starting with gul (unfortunately accents don't appear to affect the searches so if you only want gül, you'll have to just ignore names that don't have the umlaut).

---

If you, for example, only wanted names that started with L and ended with ya and they could only be 5 letters, you'd search L__ya. If you didn't care how many letters it had, you'd search L*ya. So * will find any number of letters, and _ will search a single letter.
(You could actually do these types of searches in a few ways; BTN's search is very powerful if you know how to use it).
