My question involves name change laws in the State of: texas
my question is, i have a infant baby girl under the age of one. her father and i were only together for two months before i got pregnant. what are the chances of changing her last name to mine? he is on the BC and we just now got on child support. we were never married or even considered common law married. he is in her life, and does make an effort, but i just dont feel comfortable with her sharing his last name esp. after the way he treats me and how is family treats me. i i dont feel its right for her to share the last name of a family who thinks nothing of her mother. please help!
