You can name your child 'Jesus'. This is the hellenised form of Iosus, another form of Iosua which is from Yeshua (now pronounced Joshua in english) As for the Christ part, i dont think it's okay as a christian since your child is obviously not the Messiah as in the one who takes away the sins of the world. 6 Likes |

@OP I don't think there is anything wrong in this.. Reason: Jesus is actually a Hebrew name that is originally spelt and pronounced as Yeshua, meaning Deliverer or Rescuer.. Many Hispanics also name their children Jesus pronounces 'ye sue'. So no biggie here. Now Christ is not a name per se but an adjective that qualifies Jesus. That's why the bible would have passages where Jesus was asked ' are you the Christ'. This is because Christ simply means 'messiah', hence the referring to Jesus as Jesus the Christ. So if your friend chooses to name her child Jesus Christ, it's not a problem at all. The name wasn't what made Jesus who he was. 11 Likes |

Jesus is appropriate as a name for your unborn child. Adding Christ will make it seem as if you are dragging equality with God. |

'Jesus' or 'Christ', it all has meaning, even if it doesn't... All Join. @OP- you can name whosoever whatever, I don't care... Messiah Saviour Anointed one Only one Even 'God'... I think 'Almighty God' wld serve for her (ur girlfrnd) purpose better. #justThinking |
