You dont have to do anything if you dont wanna do it
Nothing will happen to your baby, your baby will just be a bastard.
usually it the fathers last name
Nope, only if you are married to him
You can give your baby whatever last name you want to give it. It can be your maiden name. Or it can be the baby's father's last name even if if the father is not your husband.
Yes, i don't see why it wouldn't be. In tradition the baby is to have the fathers name though, for in the old days the male of the house "owned" the child.
A mother can bestow any name she likes.
Get a good family law lawyer.
That depends on the relationship you have with the father. You can always give the baby your last name. If you intend on asking the father for financial help and to be active in the child's life, then consider giving the child the fathers last name. you can give the baby whatever name you want
It's just a name, nobody owes it so you can give the child any name you want. Even your neighbors. If you are not married though or if you are a single mom I think you should give the child your last name.
I'm 20 with the same question . && do in 2 weeks ..
It depends. Probably the moms. However, it's up to the parents. You do have a choose but often the child gets the fathers last name if he is on the birth certificate. Think of your baby and relationship with the father. Are you still together? Will the baby have a part in its fathers life? If the answer is yes I would suggest giving the child the privilege of having their fathers last name. You could also hyphen if you wanted to...
not really in fact if your married to him you have to change your last name .you have to change your maiden name
