Summer and Taiyang probably didn't marry before her death because of Raven, though maybe they were planning on it. But it didn't happen so Ruby got her mom's name since technically Summer would have been a single mom at that point. That thought had occurred to me, but it seems odd for Ruby not to be legally adopted in that case. Having her continue to use her mother's name just because she was illegitimately born seems to unnecessarily pertuate the past. It is a plausible explanation, but I'm gonna stick with my theory.
