Does your Aegean Flight Involve USA? if yes throw them the DOT ruling of FREE anything within the 24 hours like what KLM did.
Rarely get this FREE entitlement from Asia/Europe/Oceania/Africa. We could be wrong.
It does not include the USA. Within Schengen flights only.

On the other hand, some years ago, I booked return tickets for a group of 4 on OU (Croatia Airlines), switching first and last names for everyone. The booking interface was in Croatian. The check-in agents didn't even mention it.
As for misspellings, I have read that there is an IATA standard they allows for 3 wrong characters. Can anyone here confirm that?
But of course you could run into ....... moves like this one, when the plane is overbooked:

Jeez, that article is exactly why I called to make the change. Surely 20 Euro is better than being denied at the airport. Ah well, lesson learned. I guess I need to quadruple check when booking my +1.
