I was going to write a simpler comment but referencing uFuzzy instead! It's one of my favourite fuzzy search tools, but possibly even better than uFuzzy itself is the fuzzy search comparison tool they built. When I have a project that requires fuzzy search, I load a bunch of representative data into it and try out the different algorithms to see what sort of things I can expect, and which one feels most like the results I want.
So even if I don't end up using uFuzzy, I still end up using uFuzzy!
