    Default How Do I Change My Daughters Last Name

    Im Originally From The Uk And Im Married To A Guy In The Usaf. I Have A Daughter From A Previous Marriage Who Is 7 Y/o. She Doesn't See Her biological father And He Doesn't Contact Her, or pay child support. She Looks To My Husband As Her dad. and my husband accepts my daughter as his own. I gave birth to a little boy 8 weeks ago and my daughter wants us all to have the same last name. How can i change her name (to my married name) if i don't know where her biological father is?? and even if we did know where he is (last i heard he was living in England, but don't know where.)...i know he wouldn't consent to the change just to spite me.

    There's an existing child custody and support order relating to your ex? Entered through the U.K. court system?

    You may be able to achieve a name change or even step-parent adoption under the laws of the country where you and your children are presently domiciled, but you would have to check with a solicitor in the U.K. to determine if that nation would recognize and honor the order.
