Lucene already provides for "fuzzy" searches. Try searching the KJV for: *melchesidec~*
The /tilde/ on the end indicates to the Lucene search engine to do a fuzzy search. The above example will find *Melchizedek* in Gen 14:8, Psalm 110:4 and the 9 instances of *Melchisedec* in Hebrews, though it also gives *Malchielites* in Numbers 26:45 !
