@OP these are the kind of people you have to be weary of:

Please tell me, does every knee bow at the name of Jesus Navas of Spain, or Jesus Gonzalez of Mexico? The anointing is with the person if Jesus Christ, not just the name Jesus. Actually the name "Christ" means "the Anointed One and His Anointing".
And funny enough these same people'll not have any qualms about naming their children Emmanuel, Joshua, etc
He is one of the foolish christians

 Jesus is not just a name.

Exodus 20: 7  Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

Phillipians 2:9  Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

 10  That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

 11  And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

I beg to correct.
Exodus 20:7 was not talking about Jesus. That place was talking about the Almighty God whose name is never Lord but Jehovah.

It was Jehovah who gave him the name Above all other name.

That been said. Jesus is a normal name. It's not wrong for a parent naming their children Jesus. But that Christ is a name nobody can bear. There's only one Christ. God's only begotten son.

I hope those saying Jesus is God can understand this simple truth and fact.

you can call yourself or your child whatever you want as long as you are comfortable with it.
Sorry to disappoint, but you cant call yourself/child whatever you want.. there are some restricted names e.g 'blue ivy' the daughter of jay-z and beyonce.

You are wrong. Jesus is Jesus in Spain whether you call your friend Jesus or whether you refer to the Jesus of the Bible. I have spent a lot of time in Spain and I can authoratitevly tell you that you are wrong.
Okay bro, guess you are right.

The "jesus" you see Spanish speaking people give their children is pronounced as "esus"...its not the jesus we know.
Another **** christian spotted! The "Jesus" u know is actually pronounced "esus" in jewish. The 'j' is silent. Some pronounce the 'j' as 'y'. Making it sound like Yesus.

Jesus is fine, but Christ is a problem. In Spanish they pronounce it "hesus " that's how it sounds to me when they call some one Jesus, but spelling is same.

There is Jesus of Christ and Jesus of humaneone.
As far you're not calling the child Jesus Christ,you are okay.

Before Jesus Christ of Nazareth i believe there were other people named Jesus .

I know a lot of white people that bears jesus and yet, they never live to regret that they bears d name. I don't know y the case should be opposite in Nigeria... I really wish to name my child after the saviour but will it go down well with the christians ? It may be controversial, but there is no going back
Well i cant say if its right or not but saying because the whites do it or some1 did it so its right is a big fallacy, just because some peeps do stuffs doesn't mean its right and im talking generally not in reference to bearing d name Jesus.
