    Changing a Child's Last Name
    My question involves naming a child, last name in the State of: WV
    I am pregnant and me and the father are no longer together. We were best friends and I am very close to his father. I want to give the baby boy his last name, however, we are not sure if he is going to be there for the delivery. Some say I can't give the baby his last name, nor can I list him as the father on the birth certificate. Is there any truth to this?

    You can name the child whatever you wish you just cannot sign the birth certificate for him naming him as the father.
