"Nee" or "nee" is the French feminine form for "born."

To take myself as an example, Henriette Roth, nee Moed, means:
Henriette Moed is my maiden name - and - Henriette Roth is my married name.

Hope this is clear.

Frequently I see the word nee in different names, I also have names
with example Ann Nee -------- what is the meaning or origin of the nee.
