Somewhere I read or was told that as long as it wasn't contested in the will, it wouldn't be a problem. Especially if your will read something like "to my daughter, Jane ripper1". I'd still change it next time you updated the will. I'd probably ask whoever drew up your will. Maybe they'd update it cheaply for just a name change.
On accounts, I'd definitely change them, though if you gave info like birthdate or SSN, and she had her birth certificate with that name, it's probably not a problem, but why put her through the headache?
