No. Not unless the court orders it. Many women decide to continue using their married name and for various reasons. That choice is up to you.

After divorcing a spouse does the other still have the right to use the others name on anything?
A woman doesn't have to take her husband's name when they marry. But most do. And the marriage document legally changes her last name to his. She has the legal right to continue using that last name as long as she wants, unless she stipulates in the divorce that she wants her maiden name back, or goes to court at a later date to have it restored. That doesn't mean she has access to anything in her husband's name once they are divorced. It simply means she has the same last name as he.
Is it illegal for your ex-husband to change your name without your permission?
(in the US) Yes, it would be unlawful. No one but you can legally change your name. At the time of the divorce (especially if there were children of the marriage) you will be given a choice as to whether you wish to keep your married last name or revert back to your maiden (nee) name. However, if there were no children of the marriage, the court might inquire as to why you wished to keep it - but your ex-husband would not have the power, by himself, to change it.
Is a divorce considered legally changing your name.. Or can I still legally be my married name if I haven't gone to social security to change it...?
No, if you divorce it does not automatically count as a legal name change in the USA. You can still use your married name the rest of your life, although this is uncommon. Most divorcees change back to their maiden name after divorce.
