ok, so it sounds like the certificate will be ok then. I finally just went ahead and called the hospital to check - no one is really sure if it will be an issue or not lol

your child's name, your name and your husbands name are not determined by the insurance you have. my maiden name is still on my insurance card and I've been legally married for almost 4 years. it has nothing to do with insurance what you legal name is

yep, insurance was under my husband and my last name shows as his. on our birth certificates up here it notated us being married as the children being born IN wedlock as opposed to being born OUT of wedlock.

hmm @mamamj - even insurance was under your married name?

But will I show up as the name on my id or my insurance?

You can put whatever name you want him to have on the paper you fill out for the birth certificate.

i just want the birth certificate to show we were married I guess lol

ok, I'm not sure how it is here in Ky... we've been married since August of last year so all of my info is changed to his last name - ID, social etc

my maiden name is on all my kids birth certificates even though everything is legally under my married last name. might just be the way north Dakota does it, not sure.

Mel liahelocin, I know here in NC they just give you a paper and honestly you have to sign your name as it is but you could give your baby any last name. Of course my boyfriend/fiancé lost his wallet in the hospital so he couldn't sign the birth certificate without an ID but I was able to put his last name regardless of mine or him not signing the certificate

on my kids birth certificate my maiden name went on there not my husband last name and my ssc and everything have my husband last name.
