WHAT DOES MARRIED NAME MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Married and maiden names

A married name is a family name or surname adopted by a person upon marriage. When a person assumes the family name of his or her spouse after marrying him or her, that name replaces the person's birth name, which in the case of the wife is sometimes called the maiden name. "Birth name" is sometimes used specifically as a gender-neutral substitute for "maiden name." In some jurisdictions, changing one's name requires a legal procedure; however, in some, anyone who either marries or divorces may change his or her name. Due to increasing security and identification needs, even where it is legal, the common law method is rarely accepted any more except at marriage. Traditionally, in the Anglophone West, only women do so, but in rare instances men may change their last names upon marriage as well. In the United States, only eight states have an official name change for a man as part of their marriage process, others may petition a court, or, where not prohibited, use the common law method.
