In Maryland the father has to consent to being named on the birth certificate, even if the mother and father are married. I would be willing to bet many states have this law to prevent women from naming anyone they choose as the father.
A husband is a "presumed natural father" in California. That was a big story with a certain person who was famous for being famous. She was trying to get a divorce before the kid's BC would state that he was the father instead of the biological dad.
