In many states, the courts allow a "family" name change so you can change both names at the same time and only have to pay one filing fee. In other states, you would have to file separately and pay two filing fees. If you have to change them separately, the parents can file for their minor child.

Most states require that you give notice to the other parent when filing a name change petition.

That depends on the age of the child. It would require a next change request, but yes you can. Talk to your local records office (generally in the city hall) about the steps neccessary.
