What you are missing is that the analysis page shows what happens when the text is run through analysis. Wildcards ARE NOT ANALYZED, so you cannot assume that the analysis page shows you what the search terms in that case. Regardless of whether george* is shown in the analysis page, the term searched will be George*, capitalized, and not found.
Pre-process your wildcards to lowercase them all is the easiest solution, as Ahmet said.
