My question involves name change laws in the State of: North Carolina
I have a teenge boy that will turn 16 on 2/10/13. He was born in Brooklyn, NY. We have been residing in Greensboro, NC since 2001. My son has my maiden last name. I am married and my husband has been with my son since he was born. I don't have any information on the biological father because it was a one night stand and i never saw him back and don;t know the name either. My son wants to have my husband's last name since to my son this has always been his dad and is all he knows. I have waited till he turned 16 cause i have been told that they won;t need 2 parents consent that he will be old enough to decide on his own. Is this true? What can i do or do i wait till he's 18? He doesn;t want to graduate from high school and to be called my maiden name. He wants to be called my husband's last name. Please help, what can i do?
