If the minor is the biological mother of the infant she can. But, the person named as the father has the right to contest the matter and request a paternity test if he so chooses.

Yes, in most states changing a child's name is as simple as posting it in the courthouse (after signing applicable paperwork) for thirty days or so. Check with your vital records office or with the customer service number at your local courthouse for instructions. If her father did not sign the birth certificate, and if she is under 18 years old, his signature will not be required.
