No. pdftex use the name it finds in the PFB. If there is a typo in a map
file, it won't be affected by that.
The fact of giving the name in the map file only serves one purpose: if
you include PDF files with fonts whose name appear in a .map, then
pdftex will deal more intelligently with them (remove them from the
included PDF and subset embed them once).
