Hello,
My question is simple: is there a way to search for an object by its name in the Layers panel of Illustrator?
Thank you in advance for your responses,

Hello
Possible in Photoshop, but not in Illustrator.
I don't know your goal, but you can
1) select one or more objects and memorize the selection: click > Select > Memorize Selection > type the name
Then you can retrieve it: Select > click on the name in the list at the bottom.
Your objects are automatically selected
2) To quickly find the layer of an object, you can select it on the canvas > click on the magnifying glass in the layers dialog box >
