Probably....
The childs last name is irrelevant. If you have established paternity you can petition for full custody in court. Speak to your lawyer about your chances.
It is possible. There can be traits transferred from the grand-parents or great-grandparents which come up in the childs generation.
The childs' father, married or not. Your relationship to the father is irrelevent. The father is the first on a long list of family members. Create a living will if that is not acceptable.
NO.
Both full custody parents/guardians have say over the child. However, just because you are someones guardian does not mean that you have full custody of that child all of the time.

I do not belive this particular law varies from place to place.
