Ah, well, the origins of Spanish is Latin. The name Jesus...which did not originally have a "J"...just a corresponding "Y" ...would be the way it would have been said......yes-u-ah...rather than the pronounciation in Spanish..hey-sus.

Jesus is a Hebrew name that many Spanish speaking parents give to their sons.

Jesus is pronounced Hey' Zoose in Spanish, but the Hebrew name is not Jesus. Actually it is Yehoshua or Yeshua.

Jesus is the Spanish and English translation of Jeshua, which was aramaic for Johua.

"Jesus" pronounced "Heh -soos" in spanish.
Umm, that's a translation of Jesus's Hebrew name, Yeshua.
From what I know, it's a name derived from Yohoshua (hebrew), or Joshua(english).

I think it's Latin. Spanish is the most Latinized of all modern languages.

In the original, His name was pronounced a lot like "Joshua."
