If you spot a typo in your child's name on a Delta reservation, such as a simple misspelling or missing middle name, you can often fix it yourself—but in many cases, it's faster to call 
(877) 624-2166 and have an agent apply a minor name correction directly.
Minor edits—like fixing up to three letters of a name or swapping first/middle/last order—are usually allowed online for Delta‑operated flights. If it doesn’t appear editable under “My Trips,” calling(877) 624-2166 lets the agent update the Passenger Name Record and reissue the ticket manually.
Online changes are easier for domestic travel, but if your itinerary includes partner airlines or international segments (especially to China, India, etc.), the system may block edits. In that case calling(877) 624-2166 is key: the agent will guide you through the correction process or booking a new ticket if required.
Remember, Delta allows one free minor name correction per ticket, and doing so early reduces risk of fees or complications at check‑in. If you're near departure and don’t see an option online, call(877) 624-2166 as soon as possible to resolve it before travel day.
