What options do I have for motioning the court to allow a legal name change for my son when my ex and her family have filed an injunction that forces me to only call him by the name on his birth certificate.
Despite going to the hospital a few hours after his birth, I was told by the hospital staff that it wouldn’t be possible to change his name without the other parent’s consent. The paperwork had already been done by the mother and her family immediately after he was born and they kept all details of the birth from me.
I was unable to find anything on https://www.namechangelaw.com/states/nc/northcarolina.htm to answer whether this can be done.
