Ex Wants To Change Daughter's Surname

Hello Dads,

Today I received a very formally written message on our parenting app from my Ex requesting our 4yr old daughter's surname to be changed (double barrelled) to include Ex's.

Has anyone got experience of this?

Aside from not personally wanting to agree to this (especially after she has made so many false allegations since the split two years ago)..

I don't think it's in our daughter's best interests because if Ex marries (we were unmarried), then Ex will presumably take her husband's name and my daughter not have her mother's name either..

Has anyone successfully fought (or lost) this particular battle?

I have a CAO in place that stipulates EOW and half holidays, so am still very much 'in the picture'.
