I'm flying in to MCO with the kids and planning to take Magical Express. My husband is taking a flight in later and will come with the rental car. I had told Disney that we needed ME tickets just for me and the kids but they sent them in my husband's name and the kids. The Disney call center said that this would be fine since it's all the same reservation. Will it be fine? I'd rather have it in my name.
 
The lead name on the reservation is usually the first one on the bag tags, then the passenger name. A separate return voucher is issued in each person's name.

ME is really only concerned with the room & resort as coded in the bar code, and the number of people on the reservation. They really don't pay attention to what name is on the bag tag or voucher. You'll be fine.

Almost. There should be a voucher in each person's name. The luggage tags aren't going to be an issue as you said. BUT...when the OP goes up to the DME CM and hands over the vouchers for herself and her kids, the 'sexes' aren't going to be correct. It's one thing for a woman to use another woman's voucher but a woman may have a hard time using a man's voucher.
I would call DME directly and make sure you are listed on the reservation. THat way, they can print you up a voucher when you get to the DME area.
Do NOT call Disney about this, call DME directly. The number is in the info packet.
 
I agree it is best to check with DME. We had a similar thing happen to us when traveling with family and had no DME tickets with our names (the right # of tix but they had the names of folks not using DME in our party) and they let us on with no problems. I had called DME prior to our trip and they said not to worry about it.
 

Thanks! I found the DME phone number. Hadn't realised there was a separate number for it. I'll give them a call and see what they say.
