My question involves name change laws in the State of: Tennesee

If a "peace of mind" DNA paternity test comes back negative would it be possible to remove the said father's name from the birth certificate as well as change the minor's last name to match that of the mother's? Also, the said father lives in the state in which the minor was born. Which state would the mother have to handle this change in?
What is a "peace of mind DNA test"?

Is this test being court ordered?

Has the father already been determined to be the legal father?
If so, what court orders exist, and how long ago were the orders issued?
