Narrative:
Inbound to ZZZ, crew requested to land at 'north complex' and subsequently requested to land on taxiway P or taxiway left in front of FBO. Tower responded cleared to land 'L8J.' couldn't find 'J' on airport diagram and advised tower, and they said it's by the south complex! By this time we had crossed both active runways at about 800 ft and tower reclred us taxiway P in front of FBO. Tower wasn't upset and there was no conflict but it could have been a problem.
