To know the answer to this question, one must have had to be in this situation before. Leaving the UK isn't a problem as your BRP isn't needed.
What if you get stuck out there and can't come back. The airline has a right to refuse to carry you because your name doesn't match.
What next?!
My wife recently had a little delay at the local airport in Canada flying from Toronto to Montreal, just because she mistakenly made her middle name her surname and the rest as name and other names. Don't ask me how that happened!
But there was a delay and they understood because it was all her names. She had to wait until they fixed them all on their system. Guess it probably helped that we were all flying together and had same surname.

Typo is a completely different kettle of fish. Especially on 2 different government issued documents. Name and date of birth always have to match. Not negotiable.

Thanks, if they allowed such a big mistake, will it be a issue with just 1 letter added extra, Sameeer instead of sameer

That was a local flight, and the error was on the itinerary, not on the passport(ID). But the names where all correct regardless.
Decision is entirely yours to make. We can only advise, you need to do what you need to do.
