My company just booked me a flight for a trip in September. When I looked at the reservation I noticed that when it list my name it lists it with my full middle name.

However, the drivers license that I use as my government ID to get through the TSA checkpoint only contains my middle initial.

Will this cause a problem, or is it fine as long as the initial matches the first letter of my full middle name (or do they even look at middle names at all)?

Thanks.
Middle (name)/(initials) variants have been noted in lots of threads here on FT...this should NOT be a problem.
[My DL has (in addition to my last name), ONLY my first initial and middle initial--my bps have my FN, MI and LN, very rarely, have TSA agents noted this, and asked to see some item with my FN, a CC for example.]
