No, you may not change the baby's father's name without consent of the child's biological father.

Your future husband may need to adopt the child with the consent of your child's father. If child'd father does not give his consent, he will remain the father in records also and you may not change the same. The child's father may be entitled to visitation rights also if he may so claim.
