Legal Question in Family Law in Indiana
I am the custodial parent of a 15 year old pregnant daughter she currently has her fathers last name but wanted it changed when she turned 18. Since she is having a boy she wants her child to carry my last name. Is that possible?

1. When she turns 18, she can change her name to anything she wants.
2. As the mother, until a court determines a different name, she can name her child anything she wants.
