There are various reasons. There was a time not long ago (mid 1980s) when judges frowned on a woman who desired to resume her former name if she had children. If the woman has children she may want to keep the same name as her children. Some women find it too difficult to do all the paperwork required to change everything over to a former name. Some women who have an established business decide to keep their name to maintain established continuity.
Of course, all of the above makes a good argument for a woman to retain her name in the first place after marriage.
