Help! How can I get a passport in a hurry if I request name change on N-400

Don't know if this will be a problem. I requested name change on my N-400, if I have my name changed on the certificate of naturzalization, can I apply for the passport the same day after the oath ceremony since my driver license and social security card have my old name? As I know when applying for US passport, you need to provide your SS number, will it be a problem if it doesn't match?
 
You can apply for your passport on the same day after your Oath ceremony is completed. The passport application will only need your certificate of naturalization. :)
 
Did you keep a copy of your N-400, specifically the part where you requested your name change. Submit that with your passport documentation and show it to the acceptance clerk - the idea is to establish that the new John Smith is the same person as the old John Doe.
