Will i receive my refund If i put the wrong Bank name for my refund?

I filed my taxes and just realized that my routing number and acct number are correct. The only thing incorrect that I noticed was I put the wrong bank name down. Will it be sent to IRS and in paper check to me or will it be possible to go to my right back just by the routing and acct number?

If you entered the correct routing number and bank account number, then the IRS will send your refund to your bank.  

 

Does it matter if the bank name is wrong?

 
If so can the name of the bank be changed? As noted above, your bank is identified by the routing number, so as long as your account and routing number are correct, you should not have a problem receiving your deposit. The IRS knows the name of the bank based on the routing number.
