easy becuase Mikiya marry into Shiki's family! It's common when a wealthy and important family but without a Son to inherit family's business and title, plus this prove that Shiki and Mikiya really love each other a lot.
But if i recall correctly shiki did have sibling but shiki possesses the power so she will be fammily's head according to one of the movie.
ps. it would be hilarious to see what reaction Mikiya's family has when he introduce shiki(daughter of local yakuza) and also the wedding , considering Mikiya's sister don't like(not hate) shiki and mikiya's brother is police man. This serie would make fine drama action pack anime.

SOmething similar.

TYPE-MOON Fes. Official Pamphlet 10th Anniversary Q & A Booklet:
Q: Who named Ryougi Mana? Was it Shiki, or Kokuto? Or was it someone else?

Nasu: The one who named Mana was Mikiya. Mikiya himself came up with the name without a second thought, but Shiki knew its meaning. She said with a sour look on her face, "Ah, so that's what it is." and accepted anyways.

So can anyone explain this to me?

To me it looks like Mikiya was planning this all along.

at least Mikiya and Shiki ended up together though confirmed by the existence of their daughter Mana
