Your PR card will be issued to you in the name that was used in the application and the name that appears on your passport or identity document that you used to apply. You can change your PR card at a later time to reflect your new name but I am 99.9% sure they will not change initial card.

Thank you for your reply :) my only probem is im not sure if my renewed passport would arrive on time. So youre saying identity document? should i use my open work permit paper that cic issued on behalf of my passport on my appointment? thanks.

You must have your passport to land. You should contact your local embassy, or wherever it is that your passport is being issued from and let them know that you are scheduled to land on Apr 29. Perhaps they can ensure that your passport will be returned to you. When I said "Identity document" that was in reference to either your passport or your national identity document (Which might be other than a passport for other countries).
