jst Elmhurst, IL	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #1 Feb 20, 2013 Me and my daughters father were never married. When she was born he wasn't around. I gave her my last name. At 2 he took me to court for DNA test and visitation. He sees her but now at 7 years old he wants her last name changed. What are the chances of a judge going with him? When she has had the same name for 7 years and has so many documents, a savings account, life insurance policies, medical records, school records, everything that would have to be changed?

If he has stepped up to the plate and she knows that he's her father....he has that right even though you aren't married.
jst Elmhurst, IL	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #3 Mar 14, 2013 Even if at age 7 she wants her name to stay the way it is? I have tried to prepare her for the change but she's not taking it well. She gets very upset about it and just pops in here head. Random thoughts of it she bursts into tears. I mean its just alot of work for me but its not what she wants.

Let him see how she feels about her last name being changed. Most good dads are gonna love their children enough to put their feelings and emotional well being above their own sense of pride and egotistical thinking. Explain to him that as she gets older that he can suggest the "name change" situation to her again. Right now she is only a child...as she gets older and spends more time with him, she may change her mind. Just inform him that you are not against it and the two of you talk rationally while discussing it with her.
