My question involves name change laws in the State of: Ohio
Hi I am recently married, my husband is not the father of either of my biological children but has always been 'daddy' and the only one either of my 2 sons have ever known. Both of my sons have different bio fathers that have no part of their lives, I have full custody. The one father has never seen my oldest who is now 7 yrs old. The other father has seen my baby (4 yrs) off and on but my baby doesn't know who he really is due to the fact that he's in and out and always in trouble with the law. He did however years ago take me to court and established visitations, that he never followed through with. Neither bio father pays child support even though there are child support orders for both boys. I have received it in the past from them both but it has been a very long time. My boys have my maiden name and I would love to change their names to my married name. I was wondering if this is something I can do without the consent of either bio father, the one I don't even know where I would contact him at.
