Hello,
Into the item tag: name (and only the maiden name - it's the standard practice)

You do it like this:
You add several NAME tags to person and under each of them you also add TYPE tag. Its value format is not specified, but a good practice is having values like "birth", "married" etc. First NAME tag is used by Ancestris as most actual, so I guess first should come married name, then birth name.
