If I was taken in for drunk and disorderly in public but didn’t have ID on me so they mispelled my name and address, can they even find me?
But they did take my fingerprints. I got a misdemeanor ticket.

It is very likely that given the fact that you were cited and your finger prints were taken where your name and address were mispelled that if you fail to appear in court for your matter that a bench warrant will be issued for your arrest and you will eventually be located.
I suggest that you consult with a criminal defense attorney to assist you in the matter that you have written about.
