My question involves name change laws in the State of: California
The father of my child wants his middle and last name changed to match his. I do not wish for this to happen (nor have it hyphenated). His father and i were never married and were never even in a committed relationship, we briefly saw each other for a two week period when my current fiance and i were separated(other than short period of time my fiance and i have been together for 3 1/2 years). when he found out i was pregnant i wasn't sure who the father was. when my sons father found out i was pregnant he insisted i had an abortion, and i refused. since then my fiance has played the father role, and he is so good with my son. his father wanted for a dna test after the birth, and since then he has maybe seen my son twice for aprox 45 mins each visit. He served me with papers to get custody and we have court coming up. do you think he has a chance of changing my sons name?
