how to find record by record id in lookup field

I am struggling with how to search with record id in lookup field? 
it is wastful to create extra field for the name and have auto enumaration for name 

I found an option to change search layout - add some other field there, but it still looks only for name ? is there any workaround? to me Record is explicit enough to find the record.

Hi Vladimir Bessonov,

You can query your contact using accountId, Here AccountId Field is a lookup field for Contact.
Suppose we have an 'accId' variable that holds the Account Id of Account 'XYZ'.
Then You can Search Contact related to XYZ Account like follows 

List<Contact> conList = [ Select Id, LastName, email, AccountId from Contact where AccountId = :accId] //here accId hold the record Id of XYZ Account.

If you find your Solution then mark it as the best answer. 

Thanks and Regards
Suraj Tripathi.
