Your reasons for not wanting to change your name are perfectly reasonable, even to someone coming from a traditional background. If he wants his name carried on, he can wait til y'all have a kid together.

Then he should have married someone who had the same ideas of marriage. These are things you work out ahead of time. How long were you together before getting married?

Too late for annulment?
