You would need to get a change of name form for a minor

here is some information on how to change the name of the child, and it will cost some money to file the forms

I have actually done this before. Just go down to your local court house and tell the clerk what it is you would like to do and they will give you the necessary paperwork. There will be a fee, usually not very much, and you will be given a court date. As long as the mother and father are present and agree on the terms, the judge will sign the order and you are good to go!
