To match my degree name on O & A levels, I changed my passport name accordingly. So now my old and new passport have different names. On my old passport I have my US visa, which is still valid.

Can I still travel? How can I book my tickets? My tickets will have a different name from my new passport.

    Bring your old passport with the visa. Also bring the legal documents that show your name change. Also bring your new passport, of course!

You can travel. Carry both passports, and a copy of the legal documents that show the name change. If the legal document isn't in English, you must have a copy translated by a sworn translator.

You can update your name on your visa with your new passport.

The official line is that it's recommended you get a new visa.

This FAQ on a pretty comprehensive Polish (it seems) web site explains it quite well.
