If the father's name is not on the birth certificate then I doubt you will find out. You could try looking for his baptism at the nearest church to the address of where he was born - father's names are sometimes put on baptism records (but not very often I'm afraid).

When was Ronald born?

It could be that his father's surname was Knight and his mother gave him this as a middle name because she would't have been able to put his father's name on the certificate if she wasn't married and he didn't go with her to register the birth. I have seen this happen before.
