I missed this reply earlier. Thanks again! 
I already submitted my N-400 without a name change, wish I had known this beforehand, but I heard that during the interview you can still submit a name change request, do you happen to know if this is true?

The IO should review the entire N400 form with you at the interview.  I do not have first hand knowledge if you can request a name change at that time, but I believe you can.

That’s good to know about Detroit, thank you. Do you know how long after interviews do they usually do the oath? I had seen some offices did same day oaths and I was afraid of delaying mine to change my name. How do you find information on what type of oaths and frequency a local office does?

My cousins had their interviews in early February, and had their judicial oath a little more than two weeks later.  Detroit runs their oath ceremonies at the federal courthouse in Detroit.  No cell phones allowed, but they do allow tablets.

 

Good Luck!
