Boyfriend said he’ll leave me if I don’t give our daughter his last name

r/

Hi All!
I’m 9 months pregnant 29 F, and this week my boyfriend 34 M told me he was going to leave me if I don’t give our daughter his last name. He’s been horrible to me, and has never told me he loves me (we live together in a duplex).
I told him I’m firm on my decision that she will take my last name, and he still said he will leave
Currently sleeping on my couch 34 weeks pregnant while he’s in my bed

TL;DR WOULD you give your daughter a shitty boyfriends last name if he has never said I love you or talked about marriage? Why is it so important? I did tell him if we ever get married her name will change with ours …

    Give her your last name and let him leave.

    What has he done to earn the right to give her his last name beyond orgasm inside you?

    And why the fuck is he in YOUR bed? Kick him out of your bed, your home, your life.

    I wouldn’t even be with a shitty man, so… no? Let him leave. My son got my last name as well.

    Being a single mom is much, much better than living and co-parenting with a partner who doesn’t care about you.

    I wouldn’t give my child anyone else’s name if I weren’t married either.
