K1 petitioner or beneficiary?  Typically the name on the visa should match the name on the passport.

Petitioner's, the US citizen.

It shouldn't be an issue as long as the first and last names are correct.  If you are concerned then you can contact the embassy for their guidance.

I think you will need to contact the Consulate. They may need to re-print the visa.

Yes my then fiancée’s K-1 visa had my full name on her visa as the petitioner.  
 

While I don’t think this error will prevent tot from boarding (unless the petitioner accompanies you oh the flight) IME CBP pays close attention to the details at point of entry.  
 

You need to contact the embassy now.

People are new to this entire immigration fiasco, and know how stupidly pedantic US Customs & Border Patrol can be about even the smallest of things. It's a legitimate concern, even though it's not exactly the largest problem they could have. 

YOU know it's not a big deal; they don't. Please don't be dismissive.
