I'm not quite sure, but I think on most of the birth certificates that I've seen, the father is NOT mentioned, except for the last name of the child. Even my birth certificate lists my mother, but under her maiden name. The only places I've encountered where you need the father's name is for Social Security numbers, insurance (medical and dental especially), and "government assistance" (used to called welfare, and I think it still is in some places). I'm not sure if you need the father's name to register for public school.
