It's easier to maintain your maiden name. If you choose to have your husband's name in green card, you will have to request name change in DL, SSN, and everything else which probably takes time and lots of fees.

GC, this is an international site, what county and for what forms. What is the reason for the name change and what legal documents do you have for that change

Form I-90. You will need evidence of the legal name change. If you are eligible for naturalization, you can get your name change done at the swearing in ceremony. It is only taking the USCIS about 3 months now for natz, very fast.
