I did the same thing, and I have regretted it ever since. I was informed that I would need the father's permission to change the last name, which I knew was out of the question. So what I did was to only use her legal last name on things that are required, such as her medical insurance, bank saving's account, social security card, etc. And everything else in her everyday life she is referred to as my last name. My daughter is now 5, and when I enrolled her in school, I informed them of her "legal" last name, but told them she "goes by" my last name. It's never once been a problem. Good luck - I know how you feel!

yes you can call your baby whatever you want to has long as its not for fraudulent reasons,you just need to tell everyone that your baby will be now know as ...... or you can go through the legal system and pay for a name change through deed pole,the baby's original name will stay on the original birth certificate but if you do change by deed pole you can get a certificate displaying her old and new name . hopefully this will answer your question

even inspite of the actuality that he's not on the BC, you nevertheless may favor his consent to regulate the call. because the workplace artwork you may desire is termed a “request to regulate call of teenybopper infant”. And on that workplace artwork, that's going to ask who the dad and mom are and who's consenting to this. And the paper asks if the different figure’s consent is needed and also you want as an instance information that the different figure consented or replaced into notified indirectly. For us, we've a courtroom order of the mummy giving consent to replacing the youngster’s call, so as that works adequate for us. yet for you, you’ll want a courtroom order issuing you permission to regulate the youngster’s call from THIS to THAT. And being that you’re dealing with courtroom on your infant with custody and visitation, i imagine you should carry this up then. We then had to call the dep. of significant statistics in the county to which my stepdaughter replaced into born. I then had to request to amend the BC. i imagine it’s called an adjudication? and also you fill that workplace artwork out and resubmit it. also ought to pay a value to make this ensue. yet basically because you and the youngster’s father aren’t at the same time anymore, in my view, that’s no longer adequate reason to regulate the youngster’s call back.

It depends, did you list him as the father on the birth certificate? If you did, you will have to ask his permission or go thru the courts to change it, which is hard to do sometimes.

Consult a lawyer. I think it would take a court order to get it changed now.

it is possible.
not being married will help.
you may need to establish that you are her legal guardian.
from there it should be straightforward.
