Mistake in Signing the Ketubah

Question

The groom, in his signature on the ketubah, wrote his bride's name as 'son of her father' (in addition to a scribble). Now, after the wedding, should this be changed?

Answer

Hello,

A new ketubah must be written.

It is forbidden to live with one's wife without a proper ketubah.
