In Morocco (where part of my family is originally from)….there are many muslim families from Fez (called Fassis, who nowadays form Morocco’s social elite) who are halachically Jews and up until some decades ago,…still married only among themselves even though they were “officially” muslims. Some of these families still keep their old jewish names,…like Kouhen (from Cohen).
