Error on ilr prior to citizenship..help needed!

Hi everyone,
I currently hold BRP which was issued 2 years ago. Married to British citizen. I noticed an error on my middle name spelling which was originally misspelt on my passport when it got renewed. When I applied for ilr same misspelt name was then carried on my BRP. Error was made by Pakistani embassy (forgot to check, my mistake too). Ukba followed suit too (not their fault). Now what should I do as I am going to apply for nationality? I have managed to rectify spelling on my most recent Pakistani passport. AN form states use name as it appears on passport. Currently passport has correct name but BRP has misspelt one.
Ziad on passport...Correct
Zaid on BRP... Mis spelt.
Any suggestions as to which course of action should I take?
Thanks

When did you get new passport back with correct name? You were supposed to apply for new BRP straight away
https://www.gov.uk/change-circumstances-visa-brp
Check section
Changes to your name or personal details
It looks like if you have not reported within 3 months you may be fined !!!
You must apply for a new BRP within 3 months. You can be fined up to £1,000 or have your stay shortened if you don’t.

Noticed it says change of circumstances if someone has a visa. I have indefinite? Would NTL apply on me?
