When pattern matching the _ forces on letter and the % can be any number of letters (include zero letters). Since a name could start with an apostrophe we would not find just those with the underscore first so (1), (2), and (3) are all wrong. Both (4) and (6) would be delimited by the special meaning of the second apostrophe. The use of LIKE ‘%”% ‘ will treat not use the special meaning and have a % on either side so (5) is correct.
