If you change your name, you just have to do it legally instead of using an alias.

In most states, you can change your name legally by doing nothing more than consistently using it. A court order is not required. It's a common-law doctrine. One of the problems with the federal REAL ID Act has been that it doesn't account for this—it means a state may not even be allowed to issue a compliant document in your legal name.
More generally, name matching is an r-slurred way of proving identity. It is normal for people to have multiple names and names that change.
