Christ is title from the Greek Khri·stos′ is equivalent to the Hebrew Ma·shi′ach, “Messiah; Anointed One.” (Compare Matthew 2:4, ftn.) “Christ” is not a mere appellative added to distinguish the Lord Jesus from others of the same name; it is an official title.
The personal name of Jesus followed by the title Christ may call attention to the person himself and that he is the one who became the Anointed One of Jehovah.

The messiah. The anointed or consecrated. He is Jesus the Christ (Acts 17:3;18:5; Matt 22:42), the Anointed One. He is thus spoken of by Isaiah (61:1), and by Daniel (9:24-26), who styles him "Messiah the Prince". There is more, lots more.

Christ means the son of God and this was not the last name that Jesus had on this earth while he was living during his lifetime. He did not have a surname as we have now. He was simply known as Jesus of Nazareth and then after his death he became Jesus Christ, simply Jesus the Son of God.

"Messiah" or "Savior." It's an Anglicanized Greek term (the actual Greek term is Christos).
