A '''maiden name''' is the name that a [[girl]] has, before she gets [[marriage|married]] and becomes a [[woman]]. For example, the maiden name of [[Hilary Clinton]] (before she married former [[President]] [[Bill Clinton]]) was [[Hilary Rodham]].

In some other cultures, such as the [[Hispanic]] culture, women do not take their hudband's name. Instead, the [[child]] gets his mother's name and one of his fathers' names, as in "Gabriel Garcia Lorca", whose mother was named Garcia and whose father was named Lorca, or vice versa.
