Is It A Sacrilege To Name A Child "JESUS"? by Kingsley1000(m): 6:36am On Apr 22, 2018 |
Is there anything bad in naming a child"Jesus"? If you go to other American, middle east and European contries, the name is prevalent there but why is it that Africans, especially Nigerians haven't adopted the name? Is it a sacrilege or demeaning to our Christiandoom? I only have a problem with "CHRIST" but i think i'll be the first Nigerian to name my son"Jesus" 11 Likes 1 Share |

It's only in this part of the world that people don't name their children Jesus. It's used in Angola and most especially in the South America. There is Jesus Navas, a Spaniard, Gabriel Jesus, a Brazilian etc 13 Likes |

no it's not bad to name one child's Jesus .but in a country like ours it will be weird naming a child Jesus, seeing how religious we are. apart from that I think it's really cool name. 3 Likes |

Joshua and Jesus is the same name with different format. if you are named Joshua, technically you are bearing Jesus. it's like; Abraham-Ibrahim. Moses-Musa. Mary-Mariam. Joseph-Yusuf... one way or the other, people are named Jesus. so if you want to use the Jesus format,... your choice... 16 Likes |

Nigerians jus respect d name too much to want to name their kids. It still carries sentimental value.. These countries use d name becos it clearly has a meaning in their languages.. Remember d letter J is pronounced as H in Hispanic and as such it could b d same spelling but different meaning and pronunciation. Those of u who think Nigerians shld do too becos other countries use d name and think we are jus being too religious, why don't u also want Nigeria to legalise and recognize gays, beastiality or abortion becos other countries do? Or copy every other thing other countries do? 22 Likes 1 Share |
