I was baptized a Roman Catholic but confirmed Orthodox and I married a Greek Orthodox can I have my nephew baptized in a Catholic Church?
Since you are confirmed Orthodox and married a Greek Orthodox, the Orthodox Church requires that any children you may have should be baptized Orthodox. Also, as an Orthodox, you are not allowed to baptize your nephew or any other person in a catholic church. From the Catholic point of view, unless your nephew is to be reared a Catholic, he may not be baptized in the Catholic Church. If he is to be reared Catholic, either by his parents or godparents, the Church will receive him. No you are GREEK orthodox u must not I reapeat not baptisma your child at a catholic church.
Can your son be batized as Catholic if you are an Anglican?
Yes, a child could be baptized Catholic if the parents were Anglican and if the parents agreed to raise the child Catholic. This would be a very unique circumstance because most parents chose to have their children baptized and raised in their own religion. A unique circumstance would be if the Anglican parents were consconverting to Catholicism but had not finished their RCIA instructions but wanted baby baptized Catholic.
Does what denomination a wedding is performed under effect what denomination a baby can be baptized in?
I don't believe so. My parents had a Catholic wedding, and I was baptized Lutheran. It is also possible to convert or be 'confirmed' later in life.
How can a child of a Lutheran and Catholic parent be baptised to make both parents happy?
A person can only be baptized once so baptizing in both churches would be redundant. Generally, when a non-Catholic marries a Catholic they are required to affirm that any children must be raised as Catholics before the Church will allow them to marry. Therefore, if they were married in a Catholic church the children should be baptized in a Catholic church. If the parents were not married in a Catholic church, then they have another problem. They need to regularize their marriage to be in full communion with the Catholic Church. They must arrange to have their marriage blessed by the Catholic Church.
If your father is Catholic are you considered Catholic by the Catholic Church?

I can't answer this question accuratly, because I don't know which church you're refering to. But ultimatly it's the child's decision to be baptized, and no matter what the parents' situations are, it can't stop the child from being baptized.Catholic Answer:Yes, parents who are not married can have their child baptized. The Church does not punish the child for the sins of the parents.

Why does godfather have to be Catholic in Catholic baptism?
When an infant is baptized in the Catholic Church, the parents choose godparents who are tasked with overseeing the spiritual upbringing of the child (should the parents' guidance not be sufficient). When the child is baptized, the godparent(s) make an oath to raise the child in the Catholic faith, which is clearly something they cannot promise if they do not believe it for themselves.
