Your passport is equivalent to your ID card just on an international level. Issued by the government, it is your identification for when you travel and, more importantly, it is also proof of your citizenship. Just as you would go and change your name on your driver's license, credit cards, or other ID cards, you should also change your name on your passport.
If your passport has over 1 year of validity and it is within one year of your date of name change, they will just add an amendment to the back of your current passport. The amendment is free of charge unless you require your passport back early.
If it has been over one year since your name change you will have to renew your passport and pay all applicable fees.
Required forms or any questions can be found in the link provided below.
