The IRS matches EINs by comparing the submitted 9-digit number and a 4-character "name control" (derived from the legal business name) against their master database, primarily via the e-file system and TIN Matching program. If the name control and EIN don't match, the return or form will likely be rejected.
Can you go back to all forms (W2s, 1099Rs, etc) and check the name entered? That's the only other thing that may cause this reject. If this can't be resolved, your only option is to paper file.
