if (child_name.toLowerCase().indexOf("fasia") >= 0){

Your code works fine.

But see that you can also use the String.prototype.search() method, that searches a string for a specified value, and returns the position of the match. The search value can be string or a regular expression. This method returns -1 if no match is found.

Note: Using regular expression and the flag i you do not need to call String.prototype.toLowerCase():

var child_name = 'Fasia_Cube.006';

if (child_name.search(/fasia/i) >= 0) {
  console.log('fasia fond');
}
