Another Life in the UK last/first name error

So this seems like a common enough problem. Because on the website, they ask for Last name first, then First name. So for those who didn't read it carefully enough would got the 2 switched around
.
I did my test and passed and the certificate got my first and last names the other way around. All other info is correct.
From reading the forum, most people just retook the test for peace of mind. However the person at the test centre told me not to worried he made a note in the system.
Can I please get some advice on this, esp those with same problem but didn't retake the test and still ok with their ILR application?

If the names match your passport then you will be fine.

The name matches the passport exactly but just in wrong order. Instead of AB C its now C AB.

Should be fine as long as the names still match what is in your passport.
