Legal Question in Entertainment Law in Florida

Legal name change

I was married and divorced in the state of Florida. I've kept my ex-husband's last name for my son's sake. I am about to become very wealthy in the entertainment world. Because I use his last name , does that entitle him to any fortune, or can he sue me for using his last name?
