I am not the father I am the fathers wife and we have heard numerous times that the mother is still claiming my husband as the father even with the DNA test. ITS NOT FAIR TO MY HUSBAND for this little girl to think he just abandoned her either?

You can name yourself and the child anything they want unfortunately. If he has a DNA test proving he isnt the father and is not being forced to pay child support then just stay away from those people. However if he was raising this child for years as his own then it doesnt matter that he isnt the biological father, because the child views him as their dad then that will never change for the child. You cant force a name change. If your husband wants nothing to do with the child and the mother then just stay away from them. Cut all contact. Move if you have to.

I know that in the state of New Jersey, you are allowed to give your child ANY last name upon their birth, withstanding curse words and numbers. I think it is safe to assume that many states allow this.
Perhaps the mother cannot afford to change it?
Have you considered offering her the money it would cost, since it seems that important to you and your husband to not have his name associated?

Research with the law governing the state you are living in and find out if thats even legal. It has to be proven and consensual to do that, I suppose. So, you have a strong case to disprove it (DNA tests as well).

Is the child THAT bad, that you don't want them to have your last name? How do you explain to a 7 year old that they have to change their last name? "Mommy doesn't know who the father is?" Do you think that anyone with the same last name as you is related to you? Give the kid a break, he obviously needs one.
