It appears that the first part of your inquiry has a typo, so please rephrase that. Concerning your second question, your child should have him on the birth certificate and he should have the last name. There are a number of complications down the line if you fail to do that. However, with that being said, you can petition the court to have his last name changed. Additionally, if the chid is adopted, the last name will change and an amended birth certificate will be issued, omitting the original father.
