    Default Remove My Last Name and Adding Father's

    My question involves name change laws in the State of: CA

    I would like to add my daughters bio father on the Birth Certificate because he is not listed on there. But I was just wondering will I be able to remove her current last name and replace it with her fathers with only filing the "Acknowledgment of Paternity" forms? Or will I need to go to court for that?

    Her father and I are together, but unmarried.

    not positive but I believe you will have to file for a name change with the courts since this is not a correction to the BC.

    Read this. You can use form VS-22 to change the child's last name to the father's when you establish paternity by acknowledgment.
