I would concur with everything Esther has mentioned above ... bearing in mind that the passport CAN still be used in your unmarried name, so long as it has FULLY 6 months' validity left at the time you submit your application - otherwise it would be prudent to renew it beforehand on the basis of the [average] processing time being around three months for spousal visas.
