I just used the Liberapay search for "Owens". The profile I was looking for is this:

https://en.liberapay.com/doctormo/

and the name "Owens" is known to Liberapay as can be seen in the profile. Unfortunately, the Liberapay search only found unrelated accounts.

The reason why you didn't find the result you expected is that the search completely ignores the public_name of an account, and that's because the search feature predates the introduction of that profile attribute and hasn't been updated to use it.
