Does a paladin must be lawful aligned? What about a chaotic paladin? What is the relationship between a chaotic neutral cleric and a lawful good paladin of a chaotic good deity?

Officially in the Core rules a Paladin has to be LG
However
Dragon Magazine had Paladins of Different Alignments in issue 310-312
Theres also alternate rules for CG, CE and LE Paladins in Unearthed Arcana
and of cause the Divine Champion Prc in the PGTF
As for your question about relationships between one god and another, Its impossable to say without you name which gods your refering to |

If you're interested in a paladin for Corellon, you might wish to check out the Champion of Corellon Larethian Prestige Class (PrC) found in Races of the Wild. While it is not a paladin class, this Prc might be a good substitute depending upon your needs/wishes. |

| Does a diety have to be LG to have paladins? Because I thought Lathander was NG and I know he has them. Is it just CG dieties that can't? |
Doggedly converting 3e back to what D&D should be...
Sigh... And now 4e as well. |

With the exception of Sune the 1 step rule applies ie a God has to be LG, LN or NG |

Many DM's allow paladins of Corellon. It's hard not to imagine a sun elven paladin knight in elven plate dedicated to that deity. There is the prestige class in Races of the Wild that SiriusBlack mentioned above, and I believe there are elven substitution levels for the paladin class as well in that book.
Eilistraee and Corellon get along just fine, so I don't see there being any animosity between the two churches. With individual zealots, however, well, anything goes. Depends on how those characters are played. |

Indeed, Corellon even has dark elves within his clery. |

| There are tons of variant classes in Unearthed Arcana, including I believe one for chaotic good, chaotic evil and lawful evil paladins (evil paladins as opposed to blackguards) |

First time post here. Go easy on me please for I have no experience before 3.0. 
That said, for a "Paladin" of and deity see Divine Champion for a quick fix to that problem.
Not quite a perfict paladin for game stats but seems to work from a role-playing view. |
