Pretend that his new wife's name is also Amber. And kill her every time you see her. Then do that with all other Packers (His new family.)

Up to CCP.

But Im against it. There are any number of people that created characters with names they regret, and there is no accounting how many players might be aggrieved by OP on those characters over the years.

If you are going to marry this man, should he not accept you as you are, including your history?
If he is substantially upset by looking over your shoulder and seeing your exes name on your characters, Id advise you to reconsider your choice to commit to him in marriage.

Its up to you what you do with your Packer named accounts and Corps. Not up to CCP.
As others have said, theyve gone so far as to biomass them, or extract SP at a loss and expense.

Would be kind of unfair for you to change your ingame character names compared to them.

Our characters in EVE exist in a virtual space and environment separate from us as IRL individuals.
You may have gotten divorced, but your ingame characters had nothing to do with it.

The characters have a name with which they where created, and are identified by in EVE.
If your name changes, it doesn't mean theirs does.

Well then, where is the marriage ability so you can marry someone in-game and change your name? ;)

It wasn't until recently that I had discovered my new love in Waffles with their sweet and savory delights. I would like to know if a GM would be ok of changing my name from Cajun Waffles to Waffle Syrup.

You can make a male alt and name him something like "Mr. Packer", and then consider all your current characters his in-game wives. This can also be a good keepsake (that's the closest word I find in my dictionary) of your former boyfriend if you split up on good terms.
If you hate Packer that much, sell all the Packers (you may get more by selling the character as a whole than selling a 5-mil SP character and the injectors) and gank them everytime you see them agian Pirate

I'm really sorry for sounding judgemental, but ...

If I'm reading the data right, you re-started (or rejoined) a Corp called "Packer Incorporated" back in April 2016, and you say you have been going out with your current boyfriend - not called Packer - 2 years?

If I am reading it right - maybe I'm not - it means you actively made the decision to use that surname again in a Corp _recently_ and then you are actively coming into the forums saying "that surname is now a mistake and want it changed", you still have not even bothered to make a new Corp and drop that surname.

I'm confused here.

I apparently have no idea what I'm doing.

in all serousness,
You won't know what CCP'll do until you've tried it so good luck with the petition!

I'm just taking a wild guess here that you had also requested a name change in the past because of the missing "a" in your last name, but it was denied?

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.
