The most likely reason is that your parents were not married at the time of your birth and the state where you were born does not allow listing the father unless certain requirements are met (typically acknowledgement of paternity). It depends on the state law at the time.
To disestablish paternity in Florida, you must file a Petition to Disestablish Paternity with the court. This petition must strictly comply Florida Statute 742.18. The legal father must file this document in the appropriate circuit court that has jurisdiction over the case.

(c) If the mother is not married at the time of the birth, the name of the father may not be entered on the birth certificate without the execution of an affidavit signed by both the mother and the person to be named as the father.
Both parents must fill out and sign the form in the presence of a notary public provided by the hospital. This is the quickest and easiest way to establish paternity when the mother and father are not married. The man that signs the DH-511 form is the legal father as soon as the form is complete.
Birth Amendments The Bureau of Vital Statistics has the authority to correct errors or omissions on a birth record. It does not have the authority to change a registrant's name. Depending on the type of correction and the age of the registrant, documentary evidence may be required to support the correction.
If I come to your office during your hours of operation, can I receive my birth certificate the same day? Yes, in most cases you will only have to wait 10 to 15 minutes to receive your birth certificate. What is your turn around time on mail requests? It is up to 6 working days.
Updating Gender Markers The Florida Department of Health no longer allows gender identity amendments to birth certificates. Note: You must update your birth certificate with the state where you were born.
