before you get the family court involved make sure you want him involved as there will be no going back.

I agree that it takes a lot to be a parent & you will probably be the one that does it all. If he wanted to be a parent/father then your relationship would of lasted longer than 6 weeks.

If he is in a situation where he is forced to pay child support he may make things difficult for you, he may want to go for joint custody, visits & may stop you leaving the country if you wanted to at some stage.

Just take him to the court. If you want his name to be on a birth certificate, but he doesn't want it, you should establish paternity. You ask for establishing paternity at the court, they order dna paternity test https://dnasu.com/services/paternity-test/ Only legal testing is accepted by the court, so be attentive. Then his name is on the birth certificate, you agree on a joint custody or sole custody, he pays child support. Everything is simple.
