Legal Question in Family Law in California

Last name of child

I want to know if it is legal to give my child, once born, my last name even though me and the father are still talking and he will be involved in the childs life. We are not married and are now broken up. I would like the child to have my last name. Does the child have to have his fathers last name if we are not married?
