I believe the answer is:

nee

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">originally called</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(written before eg a maiden name)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for nee that I've seen before include "Prefix to married woman's maiden name" , "Prefix indicating maiden name before marriage" , "Word used to indicate family name of a married woman" , "Originally named (fem.)" , "Name originally" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, The Mirror, The Wall Street Journal, the King Feature Syndicate, The Daily Mail and The Star Tribune.
