function findNames(text, name, start = 0, hits = []) { const hit = text.indexOf(name, start); if (hit === -1) { return hits; } const end = hit + name.length; hits.push(text.substring(hit, end)); return findNames(text, name, end, hits);}
— Working version
— Still doesn't make much sense to actually store the same value to the array this many times though
— Why not just keep hits a number?
— And just + 1 everytime you get a hit?

const findNames = (text, name, start = 0, hits = []) => (hit => hit === -1 ? hits : (end => (hits.push(text.substring(hit, end)), findNames(text, name, end, hits)) )(hit + name.length) )(text.indexOf(name, start));
