You may get a sworn in affidavit for change in name appear before a NOTARY or "Magistrate", after that insert two ads in local newspapers and also get it Gazette Notification. For Gazette Notification you came to contact State Govt. Gazette notification department.

If the mistake is only in your birth certificate, and all other documents are ok you may ignore this mistake. If you want to get this mistake rectified, you can contact the birth and death office of local municipal committee, get procedure from them and get the mistake rectified.
