A testator chooses an executor to take charge of and settle their estate after they die. The executor must file the will in probate and must be appointed by the probate court. The executor has no legal power until they've been appointed by the court. The court generally will appoint the executor that was named in the will unless someone files a legitimate objection.
The executor has nothing to do with your husband's right to inherit from your estate. If you die owning property in your own name, and you don't live in a community property state, the property will be distributed according to your will, or, if you have no will, it will be distributed according to the state laws of intestacy. You can check the laws of your state at the related question link provided below.
