I doubt this can be changed. I tried reporting it in the past and they never changed it. They even spelled the company I used to work for wrong. Even when I get a pre-approval credit letter in the mail with my name mispelled, it goes straight into my credit report. All they say is that the record is correct and it belongs to me.

You can write a letter to the credit reporting agency. But if some of the companies you have dealt with in the past had your name wrong on their records, then those incorrect names may be a necessary part of your record.

Credit reporting agencies aren't exactly famous for accuracy. Even if you can get it fixed, and you probably can't, it's not worth the effort.
One of them combined my father's name with mine and gave me some of his credit history. I got his credit card removed from my report, but they won't fix the name. It's been wrong for 10 years. They told me that I have to figure out which company screwed it up, get them to update their records, and then have them notify the credit bureau. I have no idea who did it and I long ago stopped wasting my time trying to get it fixed.

contact one or all of the three credit agency's and dispute that info on your credit report. The mispelled names should not hurt you report but if you want them off that is how you need to do it.
