Why is the play Macbeth not called Lady Macbeth?
The play is called Macbeth because the story centers around Macbeth. Although Lady Macbeth is an important character, she is only the second most important character. In addition, Shakespeare had a habit of naming plays after kings, even if the king is not the most important character in the play (as in Henry IV Parts 1 and 2 and the three parts of Henry VI). So even if you think Lady Macbeth was as important as Macbeth (and I suggest that's tough to argue), the play is still called Macbeth, because he did not write a play called Queen Margaret even if she's more important than Henry VI her husband.

Is the decendent of Macbeth called the Macbeth today?
There are no descendants of Macbeth the Scottish king inaccurately portrayed in Shakespeare's play. He had no children of his own, only a stepson by his wife's first marriage. There are of course people nowadays whose surname is Macbeth but they are no relation. The name means "son of Beath" so could belong to any family with an ancestor called "Beath", just as someone called Robertson is descended from someone called Robert way back when.
