You are a Jain, it means your are basically Hindu by religion. In order to marry any girl you should not be within the degree of prohibition relationship or Sapinda to each other as provided under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. Having common surname does not mean that you are contravening any of these conditions. The conditions regarding degree of prohibited relationship is based on the blood relationship between the two parties to the marriage to prevent genetically problems in future generations, so until & unless you two are covered under the various relationships named under the degree of prohibition you two are safe legally as well genetically to marry.

Well, I think if you are sure that you want to marry her then this is a faltoo reason. BTW now a days it is quite common to look at one caste which used to be 4 before. So i think go and convince you parents and tell them this caste system was made to avoid marrying first cousins, to avoid any hereditary and genetic problems. Now a days its hard to find the perfect person for you and you are sure that she is not your first or second cousin. So This marriage does not violates the rule.
BTW for your information, In Muslims they marry their first cousin.

It is only BLOOD RELATION with the last 2 generations...so if your mother and father do not know her mother and father it is not blood relation. That is why in the USA it is legal for 2nd cousins to marry...for example it is okay for me to marry my mothers' nieces' daughter, therefore two generation away from my bloodline. Last names mean absolutley nothing...for example my friend's family is from India and the surname is Patel. There are 1.3 MILLION people with the surname Patel, and only 1.2% are blood related.

If you're sure you're not related then go for it. A friend of mine once dated a guy with the same last name as her. But they were not related. People thought it was weird, but they didn't care.
