Solution:

The name is not misspelled according to the given conditions.
Looking deeper into the traceback you see also the group.py
File “/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/ucsschool/lib/models/group.py”, line 196, in create_without_hooks
success = super(SchoolClass, self).create_without_hooks(lo, validate)
File “/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/ucsschool/lib/models/base.py”, line 473, in create_without_hooks
raise ValidationError(self.errors.copy())

This indicates that it may not the name of the student that is misspelled, but the class in which he is to be accepted.
You should also check the name of the class.
