Jesus was called Christ after God anointed him with spirit at his baptism. The title “Christ,” or “Messiah” (al-Masīḥ), means “Anointed One.” (Matthew 3:13-17) From that time onward, he preached “the good news of the kingdom of God.”
Christ” is not a mere appellative added to distinguish the Lord Jesus from others of the same name; it is an official title.

"Christ" is from the Greek "Christos" ("anointed"), a translation of the Hebrew "messiach", from which we get "messiah". The Messiah was to be a new king who restored the dynasty of King David. Kings were anointed with oil to indicate God's approval. The Christian "Christ" was a different model from the Jewish design.

'Christ' coming from the Greek word 'Christos' means 'annointed one'...

it is the connection between man as body with the spirit of God. sort of an intersection of lines. like overlapping circles. hence the fish symbol.
