What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New Jersey

Currently I have my maiden and married name hypenated on everything. I would like to build my writing career under my maiden name. Can I do this since it is hypenated? Would I be able to open bank accounts for my writing income under that name too? Right now, I am freelance writing, however, I plan to work for a company in the future. In both situations, would I be able to use my maiden name?
