Informally mária but formally Veress Péterné.

For instance: on the identification card or every formal file, there are two fieds for the person's name: * one is the full name which can be in case of women, 'Veress Péterné' or 'Veress Péterné Kováts Mária' (or rarely 'Veress Mária') or 'Kováts Mária'. * the other is for the maiden name 'Kováts Mária'. but a when a woman gets married, she has to choose *one* variant of that name and _use that variant for the remaining of her life_ (or until she divorces), but mainly in formailities.
