Answer:

The name of the child should not effect your rights to receive child support.  You may want to contact the Arizona Department of Economic Security ("DES"), Division of Child Support Enforcement about receiving assistance in establishing paternity and receiving child support.  The following is a link to the DES "Frequently Asked Questions" section regarding paternity matters:
