I had this issue last year and the UA rep at the counter noticed the naming difference between my passport and ticket. My company's travel desk books through American Express and wasn't using the same name on my passport. She mentioned that early next year (2013 - the conversation happened in Dec 2012) that not having this in sync United would be enforcing this. This was also why I could OLCI for INTL trips.
I had my profile changed with my company but missed the change on United. Now I'm all in sync.
