That is a perfectly valid Greek name. Greek keyboards can perfectly well
enter those characters. For people not having a Greek keyboard but
needing to search for the patient I would recommend googling a greek
text and having the patient cut-n-paste the appropriate letters into
the search box. GNUmed can (should be able) perfectly fine search
for greek names.
