Turning 18 is enough to emancipate you in all but a couple of states. You don't have to change your name. And changing your name does not relieve the parent of any support requirements set by a court.

NO. In most states the father of the child must be present at the time of birth to sign the birth certificate as the father of the child. It could, in reality, be any man who would be willing to take legal responsibility for the unborn child. A child will only automatically get the father's name if the two parents are married. Even if the father pays child support, the mother is not obigated to change the child's last name to that of the father.
