Legal Question in Family Law in California

Child Surname

In the State of California can I do anything to prevent my ex-wife from using my last name for her soon to be born daughter? I am not the father. She is unmarried and the child will be illegitimate. What, if any are the rules relating to what a child�s last name is.
