Extracting Key-worlds out of string and show them in another column

I need to write a query to extract specific names out of String and have them show in another column for example a column has this field

Column:
Row 1: jasdhj31e31jh123hkkj,12l1,3jjds,Amin,02323rdcsnj
Row 2:jasnasc8918212,ahsahkdjjMina67,
Row 3:kasdhakshd,asda,asdasd,121,121,Sina878788kasas

Key Words: Amin,Mina,Sina

How could I have these key words in another column? I dont want to insert another column but if that's the only solution let me know.
Any help appreciated!

Below is for BigQuery Standard SQL

#standardSQL
WITH keywords AS (
SELECT keyword
FROM UNNEST(SPLIT('Amin,Mina,Sina')) keyword
)
SELECT str, STRING_AGG(keyword) keywords_in_str
FROM `project.dataset.table`
CROSS JOIN keywords
WHERE REGEXP_CONTAINS(str, CONCAT(r'(?i)', keyword))
GROUP BY str


You can test, play with above using dummy data from your question as below

#standardSQL
WITH `project.dataset.table` AS (
SELECT 'jasdhMINAj31e31jh123hkkj,12l1,3jjds,Amin,02323rdcsnj' str UNION ALL
SELECT 'jasnasc8918212,ahsahkdjjMina67,' UNION ALL
SELECT 'kasdhakshd,asda,asdasd,121,121,Sina878788kasas'
), keywords AS (
SELECT keyword
FROM UNNEST(SPLIT('Amin,Mina,Sina')) keyword
)
SELECT str, STRING_AGG(keyword) keywords_in_str
FROM `project.dataset.table`
CROSS JOIN keywords
WHERE REGEXP_CONTAINS(str, CONCAT(r'(?i)', keyword))
GROUP BY str


with results as

Row str keywords_in_str
1 jasdhMINAj31e31jh123hkkj,12l1,3jjds,Amin,02323rdcsnj Amin,Mina
2 jasnasc8918212,ahsahkdjjMina67, Mina
3 kasdhakshd,asda,asdasd,121,121,Sina878788kasas Sina


project.dataset.table

xxx

to count the no of keywords

#standardSQL
WITH `project.dataset.table` AS (
SELECT 'jasdhMINAj31e31jh123hkkj,12l1,3jjds,Amin,02323rdcsnj' str UNION ALL
SELECT 'jasnasc8918212,ahsahkdjjMina67,' UNION ALL
SELECT 'kasdhakshd,asda,asdasd,121,121,Sina878788kasas'
)
select str,array(select as struct countif(lower(x) ="amin") amin,countif(lower(x) ="mina") mina,countif(lower(x)="sina") sina from unnest(x)x)keyword from
(select str,regexp_extract_all(str,"(?i)(Amin|Mina|Sina)")x from `project.dataset.table`)
