Marriage is different. Her name is still attached to her family, she doesnt lose the maiden name but instead gains her husbands name and her name then represents and embraces her (new) family's reputation more. That is the opposite of obscuring the reputation. Women either embarrass or empower their families and so it makes the most sense that they have their father's and their husband's name.
Contrarily, if a woman does NOT adopt the name of her family when she gets married, then she is obscuring her marital status and thus her reputation. She would basically be pretending to be a bachelorette through a chosen name, the same way faggots pretend to be women through a chosen name, and the same way jews pretend to be white through a chosen name, the same way demons pretend to be humam through a chosen name.
I mean, can't a jew woman marry someone to hide their identity? It's effectively the same as getting their name changed. Most people will not know a woman's maiden name, they're going to assume a Miranda Johnson is just some white person and won't ever look deeper.
Theoretically yes, but jewesses do not tend to do that, they tend to marry within their group and they often keep the maiden name because jews are matriarchal; they believe the woman is the head of the family. Jewish men sometimes take their wive's name, they consider the woman to be more important. Jews get shamed by their families whenever one marries outside of their race, often even disowning them, like with Peggy Hill.
But aside from that, the maiden name is never lost. It is indeed veiled but not entirely hidden as we all know the context of "Mrs." meaning a married woman. Many western cultures keep the maiden name in signatures and all western cultures retain the name in their documents.
You make a good point that most wont look deeper than the name written down. However the name is representative of her family and therefore of her reputation.
