Sharanu sharanarthi. Veerashaiva and lingayat, even though sometimes mentioned together, are different from each other with beliefs and practices, and discussion is going on regarding this. However, legally you belong to your father's caste and your children belong to your husband's caste. You have all the right to practice religion of your choice., except legal recognition. Whether your husband recognises himself as veerashaiva or lingayat be known only after legal declaration by govt. Till then he is known as both.

Dear Mam, If you want to know legally as to what your religion would be, than it would be still considered as Hindu. There has been a request going on to recognise Lingayat as a new religion but as per the constituion and law, it has not yet been implemented. However, if you are asking about daily practice, it is totally up to you as to which practice you want to follow.
Regards, Kiran

The word Lingayath contains two terms first one is ' Linga ' + the second one is 'Aayat.
Who is Lingayata? As explained by Poojya Mataji in her papers prepared for "Symposium on Indian Religion: held at London, which is altogether printed in her book called "Lingayathism" - See more at: http://lingayatreligion.com/Lingayat/Who_is_Lingayat.htm#sthash.uv4yuRKs.dpuf
