Get a judge-signed Decree Changing Name.
You can file a Petition in the Superior Court of the County where the child is living. It takes about 2 months (or more, depending on the court's workload).
You must complete all the Petition forms, file the Petition and get a hearing date...advertize the hearing in a qualified legal newspaper and then get your Decree Changing Name (court order). See California Code of Civil Procedure, Sections 1275-1279.5.
With a Certified Copy of that Court Order, you can get your child's school to use the new legal name in all their records. You can also do the same for medical, Social Security and Passport records.

Yes, a father can change his child's last name. However, this depends on the custody arrangement, and who has primary custody.
As far as I know, legal adoption is the only thing that can change a minor child's last name. It will cost in legal fees though if it is contested.
Yes. Why wouldn't you be able to?
You can use either your last name or the fathers last name for the child. Neither of my children have my mothers last name, or my fathers for that matter. It is up to you what you want to use.
Yes, it works just like any name change

It would be Perez. Florez is the father's last name and Perez is the mother's maiden name.
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 Fitzgerald was his mothers maiden name
Your mother's maiden name is her last name (surname) before she married.
Their surname before they were married (and therefore took husbands surname, assuming they were married and chose to do so). Your mother's maiden name is her surname before she got married for the first time and took her husband's surname.
When a child is born out of wed lock.is the child last would be the mothers or the fathers last name? fathers name
If your mother has already got married in her life and changed her last name, if the proper dad didn't turn up to get the child registered then the child would take her mother's maiden name because the last name she has isn't her proper name for the child.
It's the name she had before she was married. In most cases, your mother's maiden name will be the same as the last name of your maternal grandfather (your mother's father).
