You can name your child anything you wish (including your boyfriend's last name), and have your boyfriend sign the paternity papers (which I advise he doesn't until he gets a paternity test) and nothing will impact his current immigration status.

Is he undocumented? Overstayed his visa? It might make a difference to what happens after you get married, but as of now nobody - literally, nobody - cares who signs the paternity papers or what the child is named.
