I really don't think he'd let her keep his name as a shield against the gods. If anything, I'd say your reasoning is backwards: If Ferdinand had his name returned, the Gods would have all the more reason to keep Rozemyne alive, since her dying and taking Eglantine with her would mean that Ferdinand would be the only Zent candidate, which is definitely something they would not want to happen, while there aren't any new ones. And in the long run, once there are new Zent candidates, Rozemyne having Ferdinand's name might even become a liability, since the gods can now have a second attack route at him, through Rozemyne.
I think him letting her keep his name is his well hidden sentimental and vulnerable side having a little peek through the layers of masks he puts up all the time.
