Query_string search is not working as expected

Suppose we have data like this:

{ "_id" : "1","name" : "Doeman John"}
{"_id" : "2","name" : "John"}

Query used:

{ 
  "query": {
    "query_string": {
       "fields" : ["name"] ,
      "query": "John"
    }
  }
}

Current result :

{ "_id" : "1","name" : "Doeman John"}
{"_id" : "2","name" : "John"}

Expected result:

{"_id" : "2","name" : "John"}

I am using Standard Analyzer. Could I achieve my expected result without changing any Analyzer setting?

You can not achieve this without changing analyzer settings. In case you still want to use Standard Analyzer, you can make your field multifield.

 {
 "mappings": {
 "my_type": {
  "properties": {
    "name": {
      "type": "text",
      "fields": {
        "raw": { 
          "type":  "keyword"
          }
        }
      } 
     }
  }
 }
}

and then run your query on the not_analyzed version.

  {
   "query": {
   "term": {
   "name.raw": {
      "value": "John"
      }
    }
   }
  }

This will fetch results as per your requirement.
