Solution 1

Google gave me this link when used keywords "SQL query palindrome"
SQL SERVER – Check If String is a Palindrome in Using T-SQL Script – Reverse Function[^]

EDIT
-----------------
You could customize this based on your requirement.

Solution 4

SQL

Select * From #Temp
Where Lower( left(Name,1)) =Lower(right(Name,1)) -- Case InSensitive

Just use right function instead of substring function for simplicity and little bit consistency (left & right function)

u can try something like this...

SQL

Create Table #Temp
        (
         Name Nvarchar(40) Collate SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS
        )

Insert into #Temp
Values('asha'),('amma'),('bob'),('dad'),('Rear'),('Removed')

Select * From #Temp   
Where Left(Name,1) =SubString(Name,Len(Name),1)  -- Case Sensitive

Select * From #Temp
Where Lower(Left(Name,1)) =Lower(SubString(Name,Len(Name),1)) -- Case InSensitive

Drop Table #Temp

Output:

SQL

Name
------
asha
amma
bob
dad

SQL

Name
----
asha
amma
bob
dad
Rear
