this is confusing; this term has a clear connotation with search&replace (i.e., the gratuitously broken functionality).
the typical naming is "search from cursor", "start at top" or so.
but modern editors tend not to have that option and instead wrap to the beginning when the search runs off the end, usually displaying a dialog to confirm this (kate) or just showing an indicator in the status line.
