There were two possible fathers. Later found out (genetic testing) that the wrong person was named. Neither man married mom. Mom and bio father now want bio-father's name on certificate. How would I do this?

It's a relatively simple procedure - ADHS: Division of Public Health Services: Office of Vital Records: Changing the name of the child when the child is already named on the birth certificate (http://www.azdhs.gov/vitalrcd/amend_05.htm).

It is a crime to put the wrong name on the because but it is almost never prosecuted.

"AR" would be Arkansas, not Arizona.

Whoops~! Let me try this again - ADH: Certificate Changes (http://www.healthy.arkansas.gov/programsServices/certificatesVitalRecords/Pages/ChangingBirthandDeathCertificates.aspx)

Good news - if anyone asks about Arizona I'm prepared and ready to go!

(Are we supposed to read the question before we respond?)

Thanks for catching this before someone else did and shot flames at me.
