You can use either a special or general warranty deed. Do not use a quit claim deed. Your ex- only needs to convey all of his right, title and interest in the property and the grantee needs to read. Jane Doe n/k/a Jane New-Name, a single woman. Then record it in the Official Public Records where the property is located.
