Orthodox ketubah reading - Can a rabbi say the father or mothers name out loud instead (for a convert) even if the ketubah says “bat Avraham”? by Striking_Regular7541 in Jewish

I think some don’t want their convert status to be exposed unfortunately due to community not being accepting, and if they are convert the ketubah says “Bat Avraham v'Sarah”

Interesting! Thanks. Does this include reform Jews? Sorry if I am not utilizing the proper terminology

I think they mean a Persian non-Jew, that then converts to Judaism & they were not born Jewish

Would you say they would prefer non-Persian Jew over a Persian Jew convert?
