What is the name of your state? Texas, Ellis County

My son will be starting high school this fall, and I want him to have the same last name as the rest of the family. The birth certificate is blank as far a praternity (I was unmarried at the time). No adoption involved, just the name change.

I can't afford a lawyer, and will therefore file it myself.

Where can I find the court forms for free? Will I have to put a notice in a national publication, since the bc is blank?

Thanks!
