Happy Easter! What better name to talk about today? The name: Jesus of course!
Jesus is synonymous with the meaning of 'savior' for those of Christian faith. Jesus is the Greek form of Joshua meaning, 'the Lord saves.' In Hebrew, Jesus' name is Yeshua meaning 'the Lord is salvation.'
I don't remember if I met anyone named Jesus. I think I would have with that name. I do remember my elementary school principal's last name was De Jesus.
I am not a big fan of naming babies the name Jesus. It's such a special name and to know over 250k baby boys are named Jesus in the United States alone is shocking. It makes me go hmmm... at the intentions behind naming a son that, how pure were they? Plus, there are too many expectations to uphold bearing such a truly great name.
The unvirtuous name Lucifer on the flip side of things, is banned (not worldwide however). I think the name Jesus should have went that route as well.
