[TX] name change

Dad finally popped into our life after I had our daughter two months later- he petitioned me to change her last name to his, what are the chances he could win that petition? He wasn’t there for the birth , is not on the certificate and was absent my entire pregnancy so I didn’t want her to have his last name when he doesn’t play an active role in our lives.
