In most states the Father must sign acknowledgement of parenity immediatley to be put on certificate and in some places Ive heard they must also get it notorized. If his name is wanted at a later time the state will issue a new one with proper parenity established.

I am not a lawyer, but this is a direct qoute from Virginia Law concerning preparing birth certificates: 3. The names of the parents, except that if the mother of the child was not married to the father of the child at the time of birth, or during the 10 months preceding such birth, the name of the father shall not be entered on the delayed certificate unless the child has been adopted or legitimated, or parentage has been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to Section 32.1-257 of the Code of Virginia, or both natural parents present a sworn acknowledgment of paternity. NOTE ligitimated means the parents subsiquently married and both agreed to acknowledge him as the father.
