Father Changed Child's Name Without Custodial Parent's Consent
My question involves name change laws in the State of: Georgia
My son is 18 years old, I am and have always been his custodial parent. The biological father had my sons name changed without my or my sons consent. We received a certified birth certificate in the mail with his name changed. Is this legal? My son is about to go into the military, everything is in his birth name. What can we do to reverse this? We are both upset and stunned by this issue.
Re: I Am the Mother and Custodial Parent but Bio Father Changed Name with No Ones Con
your son was 18 when the father changed the child's name? How long ago did your son receive the birth cert?

Contact the office of vital records (or whatever state department deals with birth certs) and HAVE YOUR SON tell them he is 18 and explain to them the situation.
How do you know the father had the name changed? did he change just the last name or the first and/or middle as well? Did he change it to his own name?
