A deed correction should be ordered and the attorney who did your title and deed prep should correct at no charge IMHO.

mispelled name on sale deed - Posted by Nimmi
Posted by Nimmi on April 11, 2004 at 06:50:28:
My wife and I bought a new house 3 months ago from a builder. We were in the process of refinancing last week and discovered that my wife’s name is spelled wrong (by one letter) on the recorded deed (prepared by the settlement attorney). There is an “i” instead of an “a” in the name. The deed of trust signed to the lender has the correctly spelled named though
Is there a standard process to change the misspelled name? We are in Virginia. Can we still go through the refinance process as we do this?
Thank you
