        { 
            var serializer = new XmlSerializer(this.GetType());
            serializer.Serialize(stringwriter, this);
            return stringwriter.ToString();
        }
    }

 public static YourClass LoadFromXMLString(string xmlText)
    {
        using(var stringReader = new System.IO.StringReader(xmlText))
        {
            var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(YourClass ));
            return serializer.Deserialize(stringReader) as YourClass ;
        }

    </Name>
</Names>
*/

XmlDocument xml = new XmlDocument();
xml.LoadXml(myXmlString); // suppose that myXmlString contains "<Names>...</Names>"

XmlNodeList xnList = xml.SelectNodes("/Names/Name");
foreach (XmlNode xn in xnList)
{
  string firstName = xn["FirstName"].InnerText;
  string lastName = xn["LastName"].InnerText;
  Console.WriteLine("Name: {0} {1}", firstName, lastName);
