She should visit the local probate and family court to ask about the requirements in her jurisdiction.
If the father has established his paternity legally then she must obtain his consent. She will need to answer questions about the child's father when she requests the name change and will need to attest that her answers are true. The court may require that the father be given notice in case he has any objections.

Can the mother change the childs name and have her new husband adopt the child without the real fathers consent?
According to the common law name change (in Massachusetts), if the mother is unmarried, she has say over the child's name. The father can try of course, but I don't believe he can force the mother to change her child's name. I am sure it may also depend on whether the father signed the birth certificate or not.

It depends on what you mean by a lease: if a written lease is signed by both parties for a specific term, then the terms cannot be changed without mutual consent.
