A father has the right to acknowledge a child as his. Once he does this legally, the birth certificate will be "altered" to reflect the fact that he is the father and his last name will be added to the name of the child, as follows:

Child's name was Juan P?rez, P?rez being the mother's last name.

Father's last name is Gonz?lez.

Child's legal name will now be Juan Gonz?lez P?rez. In the Dominican Republic a person will go by both his father's and mother's last names, in that order.
