Ms. [her name]
ex. Dear Ms. Corningstone:
Does Ms need a period when addressing women?
Ms (UK) or Ms. (USA) (pronounced /mɪz/ or /məz/[1]) is an English honorific used with the last name or full name of a woman. As with Mrs. and Miss, Ms. is a contraction of the honorific "Mistress", which is the feminine of "Mister" or "Master". Unlike Miss and Mrs., however, Ms. is used properly of married, divorced, or unmarried women and therefore does not denote marital status. In the U.S., the Emily Post Institute states that Ms. is the default form of address for business correspondence with a woman.[2]

What is the proper way to address a letter if someone has two last names?
I don't know what is considered proper etiquette today, but it used to be in the case of a divorced woman(Mrs. Smith) whose maiden name was Thomas, the correct way would be for her to sign as Mrs. Mary Smith Thomas. Or, if you were named Mary Smith Thomas at birth, you can certainly sign your name that way, or simply as Mary S. Thomas. Really, though, all you have to do to start is give one your name as YOU want it to be shown.
Do you list the first name of the husband or wife first in a letter salutation?
