Do I have to file 1040X if my w2c only correct a typo in my name?

I've already filed my 2018 tax return but yesterday I got a w2c from my employer which only corrected a typo in my name(in my w2 a middle initial was incorrectly added into my name) and others remain same.

Do I have to file 1040X for this w2c?

No, you do not need to file a 1040X if you received the W2c only to correct a typo in your name.
