Their surname before they were married (and therefore took husbands surname, assuming they were married and chose to do so).

Your mother's maiden name is her surname before she got married for the first time and took her husband's surname.

Her birth last name, or her last name prior to being married.

If the mother has been married more than one time, then she may have more than 1 maiden name, but it usually refers to her last name that she had when she was born.
