Child’s Surname Integral To Identity & Welfare: Calcutta High Court Allows Minor To Replace Father's Surname With Mother's In Birth Certificate

A 14-year-old girl sought to change her surname from her father's to her mother's in the birth certificate following her parents' divorce. 

 

The Calcutta High Court has directed municipal authorities to issue a revised birth certificate to a minor girl, allowing her to replace her father's surname with her mother's. 

A Bench of Justice Gaurang Kanth held, "The identity of a child, including her surname is an integral part of her personal development and autonomy. Courts have consistently held that when the change in name or surname does not adversely affect any legal or statutory right of a third party and is sought in furtherance of the child's best interest, such change ought to be allowed. 

In light of the above facts and the applicable legal position and having regard to the welfare of the minor child, which is of paramount consideration, this court is of the view that prayer of the petitioner deserves to be allowed.
