Wrong name on a flight ticket

I bought a flight ticket, and I just noticed that my name is spelled incorrectly. Is this a problem, or will the staff at the airport accept the fact that someone made an honest mistake?

I had this problem twice, and I took the flight without any problems. The staff didn't make any issue from that.

To be on the safe side, if it is an e-ticket, you can ask the agent to fix it and re-send a new ticket on e-mail.

I had this problem once and had to change the ticket. To be on the safe side, it is better to ask the agent to edit it and resend.
