The decency between the child and the mother is established by birth. The kinship between the child and the father is established by marriage with the mother, recognition or judge’s decisionship. The lineage is also established through adoption (TMK m. 282). A child born outside of marriage is subject to the provisions related to children born spontaneously in marriage if his parents marry each other (TMK m. 292).

Custody is called the totality of the rights and obligations that parents, non-adult children or restricted adult children have in relation to their existence, assets and representation of them on these two issues (AKINTÜRK, Turgut: Turkish Civil Code C.2, Family Law, Istanbul 2002, p. 400). Custody imposes responsibility on parents and authorizes them to make decisions that must be taken about the child until he is an adult. In this regard, in modern law, custody is considered to be the sum of rights and obligations, since it includes authority and responsibility for ensuring the superior benefit of the child, as well as a right. The ultimate goal of custody is to ensure that a minor who has not yet reached adulthood is prepared for future life as an adult in the future (AKYÜZ, Emine Child Law Protection of Children’s Rights, 2012 p.220). article 335 of the Law No. 4721 on the right to custody. in the article, it is pointed out that the child who is not an adult is under the custody of his parents, and custody cannot be taken from the parents unless there is a legal reason, indicating the joint use of the right of custody and the powers within this scope during the marriage relationship; 336. in the article, it is stipulated that the parents will use custody together as long as the marriage continues, that the judge may grant custody to one of the spouses in case of ending the joint life or separation, that custody belongs to the survivor in case of the death of one of the parents, and in case of divorce, the child belongs to the party left to him, and the principle of equality of the spouses is also tried to reflect in terms of the right of custody and the use of the powers it contains.

In contrast to the abstract and concrete norm control, the violation decisions made by the Constitutional Court as a result of an individual application are valid and binding only in terms of the applicant and the administrative action or decision subject to the application. Article 50 of the Law of the Board of Directors, which determines that the violation of rights determined by the Constitutional Court is caused by a court decision. (2.) in the face of the kin decision on the “retrial to eliminate the violation and its consequences” taken on the basis of the paragraph, it is no longer possible for the courts of first instance to decide otherwise in terms of the concrete event and person that is the subject of the application. As described above, but their partner’s last name surname the child the mother’s parental authority for a replacement with similar judicial decisions in the other case is opened, the individual is made by the High Court in the case where the subject of the application to detect and to eliminate the consequences of the violation of the rights violation sure that the retrial will be opened up the path seems. With the Constitution and the European Convention on human rights to which Turkey is a party of the protocols in the area of Public Protection okt, “of alleged violations of fundamental rights and freedoms” law be resolved in the ordinary way, it is essential that the first global jurisdictions.
Within the scope of these decisions of the Constitutional Court, the principle of “Superior Benefit of the Child” should also be examined. The most general definition of this principle is the protection of the child’s benefits at all times and under all circumstances, and it is the highest principle that guides officials and officials in all problems encountered in children’s law, orders the choice of a solution for the benefit of the child, protects the weak against the strong (AKYÜZ, Emine Child Law Protection of Children’s Rights, 2012 p. 10). The superior benefit of the child is a criterion, a guideline that must be taken into account in everything that concerns the child and is taken into account in determining what is best for the child in a particular concrete event. The superior benefit of the child also performs a function that guarantees the rights of the child (YÜCEL, Özge Ufuk University Journal of the Faculty of Law Volume 1 Issue 2, December 2013, p. 117-137). It is in the best interests of not only the child or the parents, but also of society that the necessary importance is given to the best interests of the child. Because the positive development of the child in social, cultural, physical and psychological aspects will also prevent the emergence of harmful behaviors in society in the future (BAKTIR, Çetiner Selma, Custody Law, Ankara 2000 p.33).
In a concrete case, the plaintiff’s mother’s parental authority, the child is uncomfortable by having different last names, and the defendant asserts that the prosecutor wants to carry the same surname with parents and witnesses of the father of the child is unrelated to that for about three years, didn’t want to see a father his child, the child’s mother, where he lived with being uncomfortable carry the same surname, mom sharing the same last name with continuous request voiced himself, when introducing the last name Mother’s last name, which is “Outpost” and declared that as it was expressed. It is not suggested that if the child’s last name is replaced with the mother’s last name, the child’s mental development will be negatively affected in terms of the superior benefit, as well as from the witness statements just described, it is understood that changing the child’s last name to the mother’s last name may be in the best interest of the child
In the light of all these explanations; your mother’s surname to be deposited for custody of their child’s last name be replaced with that of demand that are within the scope of the authority related to the use of the custody rights, including the right to determine the surname of the child under custody, in the same legal position under the surname of the child custody rights of Man, which recognized the right to determine the woman of progressive, in terms of the use of the right of custody for a different treatment based on gender Clay will te the marriage union is carrying the child born in the family’s last name, at the end of the marriage union, there is no legal regulation preventing the mother, to whom the right of custody has been transferred, from changing her last name, this change in a concrete case is also not contrary to the best interests of the child, and the child’s personal status will not change by changing the last name (TMK m. 27) taking into account, it was necessary to decide on the acceptance of the case, taking into account the decisions of the Constitutional Court on the violation of rights in similar cases, while it was not correct to establish a provision in writing, it was necessary to decide on the violation of the provision.
