Try this:
If you want the name (example)...
Brandy Danielle Bowden
...you will get a lot of names like, for example, Brandy Lewis with the name Danielle thrown in there somewhere.
If you want an exact term, add quotations.
(example)
"Brandy Danielle Bowden"
This will only give you results with all of the words within the quotations in that EXACT order (although my name doesn't show up with the middle name included).
Try with and without middle names.
You can also go to Google.com and choose the "Advanced Search" option on the right side of the search box.
Hopefully that will help. :-)

Yes, that's googling. If you want to have fewer listings to choose from, type in something more specific to what you are looking for. For instance, instead of just typing in Tom Cruise, type in Tom Cruise movie list.
