NAME OF THE DAY: JESUS

Happy Easter! What better name to talk about today? The name: πŸ“›Jesus of course!      

Jesus is synonymous with the meaning of ✝ savior for those of Christian faith. Jesus is the Greek form of πŸ“›Joshua meaning, 'the Lord saves.' In Hebrew, Jesus' name is πŸ“›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 πŸ‘ΏLucifer on the flip side of things, is banned (not worldwide however πŸ€”). I think the name Jesus should have went that route as well. 

πŸ“‘What to know about US name bans: Can you name your baby Jesus Christ?
