I had this happen in ATL but the TSO did not require me to be reticketed, she just relished her authority in telling me in the future the difference between my ID name, Christopher and my BP listing me as Chris could impair my travel.

A shortened name like Matt for Mathew or Tim for Timothy is a diminutive and for all intensive purposes it is the same name. If it ever happens to me I plan to ask for a supervisor.
