Legal Question in Family Law in India

I had filed for divorce a year back. Now finally my husband agreed on filing consent terms for divorce, maintanence and child custody. we have agreed on all the terms, but I have a doubt on one of the terms.

he says the child's name should never ever be changed in the future under any circumstance. Does this mean in case i remarry , the future partner cannot adopt the child. Will the name be an issue for adoption..

The future husband is not suppose to adopt your child as he automatically becomes your child's step father.
