That is OK.  Just use the name on your current Social Security card on your tax return, though.

Basically, the IRS has a copy of the W-2 your employer sent to you. The W-2 information you submit to the IRS, has to match the W-2 information your employer sent to the IRS. So just enter it as printed, and you're fine, so long as the SSN on that W-2 is correct.
