Is a certified copy of my marriage certificate sufficient proof of name change when traveling to the US?

No, it is not enough.

I have no idea why someone has not answered such a simple question yet.

You can no longer use that visa after your name change, even if you carry the original marriage certificate with you.

I changed my name. Is my U.S. visa with my old name still valid?

If your name has legally changed through marriage, divorce, or a court ordered name change, you will need to obtain a new passport. Once you have a new passport, the Department of State recommends that you apply for a new U.S. visa to make it easier for you to travel to and from the United States.
