No the last name of the child's would be the biological fathers or her maiden name. If your husband wants your child to share his last name, he will have to go through an adoption process and have the name changed in court. It's a fairly simple hearing if all individuals participating are present and in agreement.

Generally, in most states, (with the exception of swear words) the baby can have whatever name the parents choose to put on the birth certificate. The use of the Father's or wife's husband's last name is the most common in the United States.

Does the mother have to marry the father in order for the baby to have his last name at birth?

me and my husband were married, but had only been married for a month. and when the baby was born i still hadnt changed my last name, but i could just write down what i wanted. I dont know if they would except it if his name is not on the birth cirtificate as well so make sure his name is there. but i know plenty of cases where the mother has a different last name then the child because they never got it changed. I didnt have to show proof of our marriage either so i dont think it matters you should be fine. i had my baby in nevada, and the other cases im aware of are in california.
