    Question Giving A Baby Somebody Else's Last Name Without Permission

    My boyfriend's ex just had a baby. She doesnt know who the father is. She says my boyfriend is NOT on the birth certificate but she gave the baby girl his last name. How can she do that??? Can he fight it? Where and how??? I live in Massachusetts so any information would be helpful.

    She can name the child anything she so wishes, she just can't put his(your boyfriend's), name on the birth certificate.

    Ok why does he need to? He isnt on BC he isnt being asked to pay child support? Theres nothing to stop her from giving this child any name she chooses.

    There is nothing to fight...as others have posted she can name the child anything she wants.
    Many people that are not related to your bf have his last name...Why does this child having the same last name as him bother you both so much?

    You will are not the first or will you be the last GF to be upset than an EX has named her child (not the BF's) after him! It usually boils down to egos more than any legal issues.
