Hello
That looks like a Scottish record. I've seen a couple of these where the parents weren't married at the time the child was born, or the father's name was omitted - as if the parents weren't married, both had to attend and sign the register for the father's name to be included.
if your Thomas was born in 1923, he would have been 18 in 1941 and perhaps this provided a need or an opportunity to update the record.
