I've seen it done with "née", parentheses, and with hyphenation. What's the most common way?
For example, if Jane Doe's maiden name was Smith, it might be displayed as:
Jane Doe, née Smith
Jane Doe née Smith
Jane Doe (Smith)
Jane Smith-Doe
Perhaps there are other ways too, with which I'm not familiar.
What is the most commonly accepted way to display the maiden name in genealogical research and in family trees and listings?
