Just a hint to get you started with, you may use Contains method of the String class: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dy85x1sa(v=vs.110).aspx

DWas String.Contains is case sensitive, but in the link on my previous post you see a custom example to compare String with case sensitivity option. Here's an example using String.Contains: using System; namespace Example { class TextContains { static void Main(string[] args) { String names = "Alfred Brad Corey Dennis Elias Fred George Harris"; String name = Console.ReadLine(); if(names.Contains(name)) { Console.WriteLine("Yep\n"); } else { Console.WriteLine("Nope\n"); } } } } String comparison in C# is done (commonly) using String.Equals, not the == operator.
