Hmmmm, I always thought is was Christ...as in..."Jesus H. Christ."

The Etymology of the name:
"Whilst many explanations have been proposed, some serious and many humorous, the most widely accepted derivation is from the divine monogram of Christian symbolism, IHC or IHS. One factor in the transmutation of the monogram into the expression Jesus H. Christ may be that when the first syllable of the phrase "Jesus Christ" is strongly emphasized (as some speakers of some English accents may do when cursing), the rhythm suggests a missing middle syllable between "Jesus" and "Christ". The H may have been adopted from the monogram to fill this gap. It might also come from "Jesus Holy Christ". "

Who knew that when I took the time to look up the name Jesus H. Christ...that there would be an article about it online...I guess nothing is sacred...god bless the internet.

I think that many people had descriptives, rather than last names. Jesus of Nazareth, Joseph of Aramathea etc .

I believe he was known as Jesus of Nazareth. Both Mary and Joseph traced to the House of David.
The word Christ did not come until much later and it was Greek for "the anointed one".

Since Jesus was raised by a man named Joseph, his full name would have been Jesus ben Joseph.

They referred to where he came from, as in Jesus of Nazareth.

They didn't use "last names" in the culture of that time. It was usually "son of". So, I believe that Jesus (and Joseph) were in the earthly lineage of David. Spiritually, it would be "Jesus, Son of God".

i don't think they had last names back then. I don't know if you would consider Christ a last name.
