I believe the answer is:

nee

(Other definitions for nee that I've seen before include "Prefix indicating maiden name of married woman" , "Prefix indicating maiden name before marriage" , "Born (indicating a woman's maiden name)" , "Adjective used to give woman's maiden name" , "Born as (French)" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
