Only if you have accepted paternity of the child in another way, or if paternity is proven via DNA test. In some states you don'y need to be the real father of the child, you just need to have accepted a father role in order to be charged child support.

If you got divorced and your ex becomes pregnant and has the child within 300 days of the divorce does your name have to be on the birth certificate and do you have to pay child support for this baby?
If this is your baby than your name should be on the certificate. Regardless if your name is on the certificate or not you will still have to pay child support if this is your baby. There are a lot of people who were never married that are paying child support so the divorce is irrevelant. Why would you not want to be responsible for your own child. Just because she is the one carrying the baby doesn't mean you are any less responsible. (see discussion)

Your name is not on the birth certificate only the mothers where do you stand when asked for maintenance?
You should do any kind of maintenance or child support through the court after determining that the child is yours. The fact that your name is not on the birth certificate raises the question that the child may not be yours. That's my opinion anyway.
What is the birth name of Berth?
Berth's birth name is Christophe Bertin.
The fathers name is not on the birth certificate and he has not paid child support for 16 years. Does he have any right to the child?
If he can prove that he is the biological father of the child, he can seek custody or visitation rights, regardless of whether or not he is on the birth certificate or paying child support. In fact, if he is the biological father he can legally have his name added to the birth certificate. However, if he has not been around for 16 years, it is unlikely that a judge will grant anything more than visitation rights, and the child is old enough to have a say in whether or not they want visits from their father.
