Name Change

Son was born in Illinois. Bio-Mom and Bio-Dad never married.

In Illinois Dad established parentage and has visitation and pays child support (custody was never brought up in court, think that means Bio-Mom has sol custody not sure).

After Bio-Mom marriage, son has started saying he has new last name. Bio-Mom now lives in Tennessee.

Can Bio-Mom change Son's last name without informing or asking consent from Bio-Dad? Is that not a severe form of PAS ?

I would be surprised if any court would leagally change his name without consent of Bio-father.
Sounds like Bio-father is a responsible, careing individual and his son will be proud to bear his name. This will take some time and patience on your part to explain and support this with your son.

Hi! I have just been through the courts asking if I can change my daughters last name without her fathers permission and the answer was NO. The court will not change the childs name without the fathers consent.
