She signs her maiden name. Changing one's name when marrying is a custom only, there are no laws requiring it. The custom made sense for centuries so that the children would carry their father's name. But even that is custom, not required by law.

In most cases, no.

It has to be that person, not their husband/wife/etc. If the husband/wife is an authorized user on the wife/husband's account, the credit card issuer would issue an additional card for that authorized user.
