Yeah, it made sense to me in context, because the Doctor thinks of her so much as "Amelia Pond, the girl who waited," and a way to signal that he's changing the way he thinks of her is to call her "Amy Williams"; I just don't care for the knock-on implication (probably inadvertent) that Amy didn't take her husband's last name because she didn't want to grow up, as opposed to deciding that married or not, she was always going to be Amy Pond.
*shrug* All of his other communication with the creature was done face-to-face; why would he speak to it with his back turned at the very end? It only makes sense to me if he's translating that last line, but YMMV.
