Unfortunately no, I am going through the same thing, wanted to leave PA with my 12mo old son and return home to NY. In PA you must get a court's approval first or you can be charged with kidnapping because you are denying the other parent's entitled rights and PA is very against Parental alienation. Learn from this and never move to another state till you know about their child/custody laws.
No.
No - they simply list the names of the biological father and mother. A birth certificate does not prove the parents were married at the time the birth was registered.
I know that in the state of pennsylvania, the father must be present to sign the babies birth certificate in order for the baby to have the fathers last name.
No. The real parents sign the birth certificate of their child unless they refuse, I think. So sorry if I'm wrong!
If you're in the US and the parents are not married, then no, he can't be listed without him being aware of it and agreeing to it OR the court ordering it (after paternity has been established). If the parents are married, then yes he can be listed (because he is the presumed father). And this answer holds true rather the father is a minor or an adult.

Unless the parents were married when the child was conceived/born, it is the burden of the custodial parent/State to prove paternity in such a case.
The man on the birth certificate.

An illegitimate child is a child born out of marriage. It doesn't matter if the father is known or not, what matters is that the parents were not married at the time of birth. A child can be legitimised if the two parents get married later. Rules on illegitimacy vary from place to place.
