Talking ok, question about name on passport vs drivers license

Ok folks,
I just had my global entry approved (yay!!) but Im really concerned about a possible issue--
I got my passport several years ago and it states my name with the middle initial.I moved to NC a few years ago and on the drivers license it says your name with your full middle name--no exceptions. So the GE office told me today that when I fly domestically (which is all I do), and I put my trusted number in my reservation, it would raise a ton of red flags because the name is different on my drivers license than on my passport, and since I would use my drivers license to travel domestically it would be a problem.
I called the DMV and was told that in this state the license must bear your full name.
will this keep me from getting put in TSA pre check? Should I see about getting my name changed on my passport?
would appreciate advice from the voices of experience here
thank you!!
