Ever heard of
Baitey Allah kee Naimat (Gift) aur batiaan Allah ke rehmat (Blessing) hoteee heen
Its pity that you are kind of disappointed too.
As far as "khaaandaan ka naam" (family name is concerned), ask your parents to build a madarsa, school or some charity thingie for poors and their khaaandaan ka naam will live forever. Its not people who carry on family name, its the deeds.
Jazzak Allah for all these words of wisdom. I pray that all this advice works out for this poor guy.
