Term Query to Exclude Others

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hi this may seem too elementary but I am also new to elasticsearch, so please bare with me. Say I have two documents, one with "name" : "ABC Company" and one with "name" : "ABC". Setting for the "name" field is of "text" type with Standard analyser.

When doing a Term query like below:

{
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "must": [{
                "term": {
                    "name": "abc"
                }
            },
            {
                "term": {
                    "name": "company"
                }
            }]
        }
    }
}

I can get exclusively the "ABC Company" document.
But doing this Term query:

{
    "query": {
        "bool": {
            "must": [{
                "term": {
                    "name": "abc"
                }
            }]
        }
    }
}

would return both documents "ABC Company" and "ABC".

How should I do the query so that I get just "ABC" to return in the second query without changing the indexing settings (e.g. adding extra keyword fields).
