Just make sure that the name on the ticket is the same as the name on the passport otherwise they won't let you cross - it does mean that you have the hassle of having to book your tickets under your old names for the next 8 years (they'll credit you 9 months worth if your old passport hasn't expired but that's it - s ucks I know!)
