Jew-veau riche

Jew-veau riche(French: "new jew") is a term, usually derogatory, to describe those whose Judaism has be acquired through conversion, rather than birthright. They did not develop their Jewish identity through a lifetime of suffering being guilted by a Jewish mother, being sent off to overnight camp or blamed for killing Jesus.

Jew-veau riche people excessively flaunt their new found Judaism when in the company of Jews by birthright.
"Ivanka's husband wasn't allowed to marry her until she converted to Judaism. She's so Jew-veau riche, that she brags about keeping Kosher on Christmas."

nouveau riche 

A term of reference used by the already rich to describe people who had the audacity to become rich by actually working for it rather than by patronage and inheritance.

One could argue that the only validity of the derogatory moniker is for those who have more money than class - but then that could be said of the more traditional rich.
