Can I use a hundred surnames for my baby's name?
Article 22 of the Marriage Law stipulates that "children can take their father's surname or their mother's surname." Note that the legal term is "may" rather than "should". Legally, "yes" means you can do it or not. For example, "you can bring a lawsuit to the people's court" means that the parties can bring a lawsuit or not. And "should" is a necessary meaning. Omission is an illegal act, such as "the person subjected to execution shall execute the effective judgment of the people's court". If it is not implemented, it will be enforced according to law. Then, "children can take their father's surname or their mother's surname" does not rule out taking someone else's surname, and they can even choose another surname by themselves. Therefore, it is entirely possible for children to take their grandfather's surname.
However, for children under the age of 18, their names should be agreed by themselves or their parents. Parents agree, but the cognitive person disagrees, and parents infringe on their children's right to name; For children who have not formed cognitive awareness, only one parent agrees and the other does not. If the consenting party decides forcibly or arbitrarily, it will infringe on the custody of the other party. Infringement is illegal and should be corrected, that is, if the infringed party does not agree, it should be corrected. If the infringed party agrees through consultation, it may not change it back.
There seems to be no legal provision on children's surnames in the existing laws of our country, that is to say, children can freely choose any surnames they take (some insulting or taboo words may not be allowed). As for the later renaming, please refer to the following two articles:)
Seventeenth household registration content needs to be changed or corrected, the head of the household or I shall report to the household registration authority; If it is verified through examination, the household registration authority shall change or correct it. When the household registration authority deems it necessary, it may require the applicant to issue a certificate of change or correction.
Eighteenth citizens to change their names, in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) when a person under the age of 18 needs to change his name, his parents or adopters shall apply to the household registration authority for registration of change;
(two) when a person who has reached the age of eighteen needs to change his name, he shall apply to the household registration authority for registration of change.
Article 22 of the Marriage Law stipulates that "children can take their father's surname or their mother's surname." However, in real life, children take their parents' surname as well as their parents' surname. According to the principle of "no law forbids anything", as long as parents agree, children's surnames can be decided according to their own wishes, that is to say, children can take their grandfather's surnames. I just don't understand, isn't grandpa's surname different from his father's? )
According to the provisions of Article 18 of the Regulations on Household Registration in People's Republic of China (PRC), the name change can be handled according to the following provisions:
1. When a person under the age of 18 needs to change his name, his parents or adopters shall apply to the household registration authority for registration of change;
Two, people over the age of eighteen need to change their names, should apply to the household registration authority for registration of change.
