Check if String contains other String C#

Question

I'm trying to find out if a String contains another string like this:

var s1 = "Test name*"
var s2 = "TestName"

If checked now it should return true.

`s1` does not contain `s2` and `s2` does not contain `s1` in your example, so it is unclear exactly what you are wanting from this. — crashmstr, Aug 21 '17 at 14:25
Wait what? This should return true? It's either duplicate or unclear or broken! Feel free to Use the mighty [Edit] Button! — Drag and Drop, Aug 21 '17 at 14:27
This search with current value of s1 and s2 will return false. — Amit Kumar Singh, Aug 21 '17 at 14:28
Are you trying to check that if both strings have whitespace removed and you are not worried about capitalization that one could be contained in the other? — Kevin Cook, Aug 21 '17 at 14:40
Basically, If 2 string Are obviously different with ahve to do classical string operation to check if different this way `"Tom Marvolo Riddle"` and `"I am Lord Voldemort"` return true. — Drag and Drop, Aug 21 '17 at 14:54
It could be cool if the Function have a Culture invariant so `"Tom Servolo Riddle"`and `"I am Lord Voldemort"` return true too as It's the Spannish version of `"Eis Lord Voldemort"` — Drag and Drop, Aug 21 '17 at 14:58

Try this:

var exists = s1.Replace(" ", "").Tolower().Contains(s2.ToLower());
