Generate XML in format <Field Name="TagName">value</Field>

I need to generate XML file in following format:

<Field Name="TagName">value</Field>

I am using the XmlTextWriter. It works but closing tag looks like : </Field Name="TagName"> and I would like it to be </Field>

Below my function to create node. 

private static void createNode(string fieldName, string fieldValue, XmlTextWriter writer)
        {
           writer.WriteStartElement("Field Name="+"\"" + fieldName + "\"");
           writer.WriteString(fieldValue);
           writer.WriteEndElement();

        }

Can you tell me if there is any library for c# which allows me to generate the xml in the format I am expecting or should I modyfiy the XmlTextWriter? If so, how?

Don't try to add the attribute during the WriteStartElement call - use WriteAttributeString separately:

       writer.WriteStartElement("Field");
       writer.WriteAttributeString("Name",fieldName);
       writer.WriteString(fieldValue);
       writer.WriteEndElement();
