So if your real name is Boniface and I call you Babylon does that change who you are? If I say that you (Babylon) should come and collect £1bn that a billionaire left for you will you say not me?

No. Our Lord Jesus Christ has an identity. It's just He answers His name in whatever language you call Him.

Yeshua is the Hebrew name, and its English spelling is “Joshua.” Iesous is the Greek transliteration of the Hebrew name, and its English spelling is “Jesus.” Thus, the names “Joshua” and “Jesus” are essentially the same; both are English pronunciations of the Hebrew and Greek names for our Lord. (For examples of how the two names are interchangeable, see Acts 7:45 and Hebrews 4:8 in the KJV. In both cases, the word Jesus refers to the Old Testament character Joshua.)

That picture answered the OP in a few words. Our Lord Jesus didn't come to set up a religion, He came to die and rise again so as to connect us directly to God. He came to set up a living relationship with God the Father without us getting religious. He is the only One who died and rose from the dead so that we can have eternal life with God.
