Do you have to list the father on a birth certificate?

No, this is why the birth certificate does not hold up in court when the father seek paternal rights because it is not fool proof by showing DNA.

Only the biological father is allowed to sign it and if you know the one signing it is not the father, you are committing fraud.

If the father is not legally divorced from another woman does his name still go on the birth certificate?

If the mother is not married to anyone else there is no one else considered to be the more likely father, so the father's marital status does not bar him from claiming the child and signing the birth certificate if he is willing to do so.
