So many people say Jesus others say something else. From the bible what is his name? And why do you think that most people don't know?

He's had many names....
Father, Jesus, Holy Spirit....
Even Jesus name was actually Yeshua, which would be translated to Joshua... so they say.
Yahweh, the one who is called I AM, the Most High, the Creator, the Lord, uhhhhhh.....God?
The Alpha and the Omega....
The light from before the light....

Most people DO know. There are 1 Billion Catholics in the entire world and then another Billion Christians. That is a little less than 1/3 of the people alive today. Here in the west it is a much higher proportion.
The devil is always trying to take credit away from the real power of the Cross, so he happily is deceiving those who believe that Jesus was just a Prophet or Whatever. Satan thinks that if he can convince people that Jesus was not divine that we will doubt that Satan was defeated by Him. We know that He was because that same power has transformed our very lives.

We don't know the exact name of God. His name in the the Hebrew characters is YHWH the Scribes left out the vowels
because they said in a stupidstious way it would be wrong
to pronounce it. Some use Yahweh,Jehovah, and others.
But today the most widely use name is, Jehovah.
Jesus is Gods son.
People today...some don't study the Bible and use other translation to find out...and why in some translations they substitute the name with TITLES. LORD, GOD, and I AM.?
That is sooo wrong gang.

Well, we do have a truine God. God the Master is YHWH. If you want to add vowels, go for it. I am sure everyone else has but I like to run it on faith like The Apostle Paul said. The Christ is God's son. The Son of Man. Born of Woman. He was named Yashua. Curiously, that word of jives in with YHWH and moreover they are of each other like we are of God. Ask St. Thomas Aquinas. He can explain all this better than me. Back to the Trinity. God took his Son away. He could not leave him here any longer for his bones will have been sold. Anyone out there with a bone of Jesus step right up! That's what I thought. There aren't any. Yahshua morphed out of that shroud at the speed of sound or light or something more intense, I am sure. God is gracious, however and he gave us the helper. The helper lives in us and if we want that Holy Spirit to indwell in us, it sure does pack a punch. And it keeps you safe and sane. Trust me. I should know.

Most people don't know because they don't know him! He has many names, here are a few; Yahwey or Yahavey in English its the word Jehovah, that's the one true God, the Father, Now he came as a man name Jesus, The Christ, and he is called yeshewa, Yahavy's Savior. From the garden we get Elohim, which beast breasted one, he nurses us like a mother. Each name has a different nature to it. Now Jehovah Jirah is my provider, it means he will provide, Jehovah Rapha is my healer, and Adoni is Lord above all. Get the message there are lots of names, he will reveal them to you as you spend time in his word and ask him who he is! He wants to reveal his power to all! Here is a few more for ya! Wonder full councilor, Prince of peace, Lamb of God, Lion from the tribe of Judah,advocate ,King of kings, Lord of lords, Emanuel which means God with us. The way the truth and the Life "JESUS CHRIST" The Holy one!

Yahweh, in the days of Moses the scribes could only use the pen that wrote his name once then it had to be destroyed. the people would not even say the name and only once a year would the high priest be able to say it. God tells Moses in this particular story that his name is the Great I AM

Nobody knows but there are those of us who think we do. Jesus is the name of a man from Nazareth who walked the earth 2000 years ago, not a god.

Based on attributes, God has thousands of beautiful names in the Hindu philosophy alone.
But in the final analysis, God's name should be simply, LOVE.

which God,there are many and hundreds of names
as you mention the name Jesus .which used to be Horus or apollo
then i assume that you are talking about the now Christian God
who started out as Baal, Osiris .became Ra. Zeus ,and many other names ,and with the transition from Paganism to Christianity became known as Jehova ,or Allah
all the same God
