Everyone, I built a hello bot and the system works but perfectly there is a small problem, I want the system to display only after typing '$' + the name that is in the database, will display the database.

Code:

 var name = (message.content);
            var sql = `SELECT * FROM customers WHERE name = ?`;
            con.query(sql, [name], function(err, result) {
                if (err) throw err;

                if (message.content.startsWith(prefix + result[0].name)) {
}

Now, as soon as I print a particular variable it does nothing, but if I type in the database the full name $Example It invented for me if I used the same code but without prefix + in the startsWith call.

How do I make a bot work even if the special character is not listed in the database?
