I don't see any harm tho, just like people bear Emmanuel too.

Just that the name "Jesus" is quite special, even if Mexicans or Spaniards use em (p.s i think theirs is pronounced 'hey-sus')

Jesus/Joshua/Yeshua are all the same.

Lots of people name their kids Jèsus in Mexico...and Spain(I think)
The "jesus" you see Spanish speaking people give their children is pronounced as "esus"...its not the jesus we know.

It's the same!

It's just that Spanish people pronounce the J as H and this is how they call Jesus in church too.

No. It's pronounced Hesus and this is how they refer to Jesus of the Bible too.

 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.
thank God yhu ended it with Jesus Christ is d Lord n nt Jesus is Lord. Meaning wen yhu name ur child Jesus Okeke and not Jesus Chrisy Okeke. Get it

Bro it's not the same. That jesus Spanish people bear has a separate Spanish meaning. Only if you are saying the Hebrews and the Spanish speak the same language.

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.

I don't fucking care about any attack as long as I never break any rule in calling my child what ever name I cherish
please think about the attack on your child too,it might lead to trauma for the child. For me its a beautiful name but our ignorant society will misunderstand you. Go for Joshua or Yashua which is Jesus' original name.

No, it's not a sin to name a child Jesus. it's a regular Jewish name. But it's a sin to name a child CHRIST.

If you had not seen people christened "Jesus", it implies you have travelled wide. I know many people bearing "Jesus".
