I don't really like that the feminist stance on cis marriage is that women should keep their own surname rather than taking the man's (hexbear.net)

Why can't it be something fun like swapping surnames and then creating a portmaneau or blended name for the kids.

I know people who blended their surnames together when they got married. You can both change your names upon marriage. Taking one over the other is pure convention.
