You can ask a Lawyer to issue you affidavit regarding your kid's school credentials, etc, to correct his name but, you cannot ask a Lawyer, and change his name and submit to DFA, You still need to file it in court and it's a long way to process.
I've involved in travel agency before and attended meeting between DFA and NSO about wrong spelling in BC and different from other docs like school credentials, Yung BC pa rin ang dapat sundin. AS DFA WILL ALWAYS SAY, " JUST FOLLOW YOUR AUTHENTICATED BC"
