I appreciate your concern but the biological father needs to give a no objection letter and/ or affidavit that he doesnot have a problem that you alongwith her biological mother wants to adopt his bilolgical son and would take care of his all expenses and would not harm the child. This needs to be discussed across face to face for better understanding.

Hi,
It is generally not possible to change his surname. But you can do it by adopting your step son with the consent of his biological father. Though, there are other aspects to be considered. This procedure may take few months.
