Hi Zeru,
I am not sure what case number you have, but you should start preparing your documents, like authentication of your high school certificate, birth certifictae and marriage certificate (If you are marriad). I think it is better to have your document ready before you have the 2NL. That is what I am doing at the moment.

I agree that for this you can correct at interview, if you feel more comfortable unlocking and correcting before that is also fine. The important thing is that the original entry and the official documents have the right name.
Btw we corrected something on our DS230 at the interview, it wasn't a problem.
