TLDR : Answer Summary
The user questions if the name on their Thai E visa will match their passport information, specifically mentioning a spelling mistake in their application. The comments indicate confusion and emphasize that the applicant's name on the visa should match the passport. One user highlights a specific error in the name "Mohammed" being incorrectly spelled as "Mohahhed" on the payment slip, prompting concern about possible processing issues.

The character recognition part of scanning your passport is known to be very sketchy. Double check or triple check everything or just enter it manually.

The Visa is issued via your Passport, so the name of the applicant must be the same ...
