Summary/Abstract: Name of the child is the phrase that defines the attribute of his identification resulted in the name to be assigned at birth registration in the Register of Civil Status. The name is composed of last name and first name. Family name is that part of the name that indicates the connection of the individual with a certain family and designates in its relations with other family members. The attribution of the name can be done, as provided by law, by two processes: acquiring the name and establishing the name. Depending on how the child’s filiation has been established there are three hypotheses of acquiring the surname:the case of the child from marriage,the child out of marriage and the one with unknown parents.
