The definition of a maiden name is the surname or birth name a woman has before she marries and takes her husband's last name.
The mother's maiden name is her surname by birth (the last name of her parents.) Example: A woman's name would be 'Jane Mary Doe' when born and she keeps that name until she m â¦ arries and then she changes her last name to that of her husbands who is John Smith and her name would be Jane Mary Smith.efore marriage, she would use the surname of her father. When a woman was not married, she was a maiden, a woman who never had sexual relations. So the maiden name of a woman is the surname she used before marriage, usually that of her father.
