well, if he is your biological father,then you should.... but if he left your mother when she was pregnant,then you should have your stepdad on there
a birth certificate is a public document. after filling it out it is filed with the government. it you want to falsify a public document and risk the prison time then go for it. also keep in mind that if you knowingly put someone elses name on the birth certificate then that gives a great way for the accused 'unfit' father to prove that you are an unfit mother. you can pretty much guarantee that any judge would be more then happy to take your custody away, and give it to the father because you have proven to be not only a felon, but a person whose child's best interest are not a priority. but by all means do it, i love seeing stupid people get screwed because they think being vengeful to an ex is something acceptable .

No. The birth certificate should show the name of the natural father or the name should be left off the certificate. If you put a name on the certificate and you know that person not to be the father, then you have falsified a public record and in any country in the world, that is a crime.
