| Nov 2, 2020 at 22:50 | comment | added | uhoh | @AaronF I did not say "in place of". I have not seen them used together. Instead, they seem to be exclusive of each otherr; if one is used, the other isn't, so I think that my use of instead of is correct and proper as far as it goes, unless you can show me a case where they really are used together! However thanks for the background and for mentioning "birth name". | |
| Nov 2, 2020 at 18:54 | comment | added | Aaron F | @uhoh "née" isn't used instead of "maiden name". The former is an adjective and the latter is a noun. "Birth name" is a gender-neutral or masculine alternative used instead of "maiden name". But "maiden name" is still the correct term and hasn't fallen out of use (at least in the British English-speaking world that I'm aware of). | |

But in space, Korea's only cosmonaut to date, Yi So-yeon, still had the given name-family name order of name tags: upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/87/… | |

| Nov 1, 2020 at 23:58 | comment | added | uhoh | @OrganicMarble okay, may do. SE is a public forum, posts and comments are read by many people. That will be informative to many and may resonate especially with those who have had to deal with the term "maiden name" personally. | |
| Nov 1, 2020 at 23:34 | comment | added | Organic Marble | @uhoh I don't care about that. | |
| Nov 1, 2020 at 23:28 | comment | added | uhoh | @OrganicMarble because of the inherent implications of "maiden", these days née is often used instead though it still caries a gender reference, e.g. Sunita Lyn Williams (née Pandya; born September 19, 1965) is an American astronaut and United States Navy officer... | |
| Nov 1, 2020 at 20:32 | comment | added | Organic Marble | Even in their JAXA coveralls it's this way. I have an old picture of Naoko Sumino (the maiden name of Naoko Yamazaki) in her JAXA coverall and it's like this. | |
