Was his birth certificate fake or was his named changed twice

A tough question on the first one, but his mother had presumably divorced one Barack Obama Sr. He had left the family when young Barack was about two years old.

When Barack Jr was about six years old, his mother married Lolo Soetoro. The family then went to Indonesia and thence young Barack to school. He was known as Barry Soetoro. Good old Lolo then left his son and Ann. I believe his white grandparents raised him as Barry Soetoro then about ten years old. I stand to be corrected however.

Various ideas as to whether he was re-registered as such. When he was eighteen years old, he reverted to Barack Obama.

No, Barack Sr abandoned the "family" much, much earlier than that, and it is not known for certain whether he was even present for the birth - Barack Jr was born [somewhere] in August of 1961, but Stanley Ann is known to have returned to the state of Washington, as a single mother, no later than the beginning of 1962:

...Susan Blake, a classmate and former city councilwoman from Mercer Island who long ago changed the infant Barack's messy diaper, said of her friend: "Hers was a mind in full tilt"...

So if there was a "marriage" and a "family", then it couldn't have lasted much more than two or three months.

reverted or legally changed his name back to Barack Obama? I ask this question because if he was legally adopted and the name changed on adoption, he is legally known by that name until it is legally changed back.

Obama returned to Hawaii to live with his grandparents and go to an exclusive private school in 1971 or 1972. He went by Barry Obama in Hawaii, in college and law school. It was only when he decided to run for State Senate from Louis Farrakhan's district in Chicago that he reverted to the Muslim name Barack Hussein.
