My question involves name change laws in the State of: North Carolina
When my daughter was born in 2004 the vital records staff at the hospital told me that since i was still legally married to my ex husband that the state of North Carolina did not allow me to put the name of my daughter's father on her birth cerificate. I informed the staff that my ex husband and i was no longer together and that he was not her father, they told me that if i did not want his name on her birth certificate that i could refuse to have his name on there so i did just that not knowing that in place of a father's name on the birth certificate that it would indeed state REFUSED. Now that i am divorced and my daughter's father and I are married how do i go about having that refused removed from her birth certificate and having her father my husband name respectfully taking his title as her father. Please help this is his only child and it will make him more than proud to have his name on his daughter's birth certificate.
