I got my name twice on eCoPR (first name "John Doe" Last name "John Doe" and my name is just given name "John Doe" in my Passport). I have to visit back home but I cant go because the process for name amendment in eCoPR takes 6 months after that we need to replace PR card as well which is again 1-2 months procedure plus I cant apply for Sin without the correct eCoPR or PR card and cant work here for 6 months which will again a problem when I have to apply for Tax. This whole process is crazy. If some one know any way out of it please help.

My guess is that you would not have any problems at either end with this but you could try calling IRCC.
