Lots of my friends did not change their names either. Is it unusual in the US?
A few women, professional women and women who made their names before marrying don't change their names, but I think most do.
I hate it that women change their names, it makes them really hard to find later- but then again, maybe that is why they do it!
I put my maiden name on Facebook along with my married name in case any old friends are trying to find me...
