    Where is this at. Location makes a big difference, Does the bio father want his name on the birth certificate ?

    Thank you for wanting to help, but the legal forums have a higher standard for responding than other forums. Here our answers must conform to statutory law. The fact here is the mother can't do what she thinks best she has to deal with what the law allows. Changing a child's name involves several legal issues.

    Me and my partner are a couple but our daughter has my girlfriends surname as she was forced to do so by her dad can we change it to my name without getting married?
