The Nazarene was sent to live the life of every man, and he felt the fascination of the stars. He came; He saw; He surrendered all so that we might be born again. And the fact of his humanity was there for all to see. But he was ulike any other man, and---yet--so much like me.

According to the standard reference for Koine Greek, the Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament, Bauer-Arndt-Gingrich-Danker, University of Chicago Press, 2nd ed., 1979: Ναζωραῖος/Nazoraios is translated into English as Nazarene. It is predominately a title of Jesus and found in Gospel of Matthew, Gospel of John, Acts of the Apostles and Gospel of Luke. In contrast, the Gospel of Mark uses Ναζαρηνός/Nazarenos, which means "coming from Nazareth", as does Luke 4:34 (parallel of Mark 1:24) and Luke 24:19. Matthew 2:23 says that Jesus was called the Nazarene because he grew up in Nazareth. However, according to references cited by the BAGD Lexicon, "linguistically the transition from Ναζαρέτ/Nazaret to Ναζωραῖος/Nazoraios is difficult." As BAGD points out, it was clear Nazarene meant something else before it was connected with Nazareth, however it is no longer clear what that other meaning was.
In the NASB translation, Jesus is called the Nazarene in Matthew 2:23; Mark 10:47; 14:67; 16:6; Luke 24:19; John 18:5; 18:7; 19:19; Acts 2:22; 3:6; 4:10; 6:14; 22:8. According to Acts 24:1-9, Paul of Tarsus was accused by the attorney of the Jerusalem High Priest Ananias and "the Jews" of being "a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes".

Jesus the Nazarene or Jesus of Narareth. It's the same. Nevertheless, there is some interpretations that suggest this is a wrong assumption.

I stand amazed in the presence of Jesus the Nazarene
And wonder how He could love me
A sinner condemned unclean
How marvellous How wonderful
And my song shall ever be
How marvellous How wonderful
Is my Saviour's love for me.
