(1) It is wajib to give that extra amount in charity which one gets except the capital amount deposited in LIC. Whatever you wrote is right.
We can write the ruling of the amount received under the scheme if you explain the scheme in detail i.e. how you participated in the scheme that your heirs will get the amount.
(2) It is correct to name the son Musa, rather it is very good. It is the name of a great prophet (عليه السلام).
