Today that term is considered an insult and it is a label that is only used by the ignorant.

The appropriate term in this age is a child "born out of wedlock". Bastardy and illegitimacy are outdated legal terms from a time when a child born to a single mother was not considered a legal heir of its father. In fact, modern anti-discrimination laws prevent the use of those terms legally. Times have changed and laws of succession have been modified. The child of an unmarried father has the same rights to his estate as his children born in marriage.
