Christ is Jesus' title.
Meaning: anointed, the Greek translation of the Hebrew word translated "Messiah"
Christ is the official title of our Lord, occurring 1,514 in the New Testament. It denotes that he was anointed or consecrated to his great redemptive work as Prophet, Priest, and King of his people. 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 describes him as "Messiah the Prince."

The proper terminology is that Jesus is the Christ (or Messiah) prophesied in the Old Testament.

Wow. It depends. Is she lucid? If not, just tell her yes and let it go. If she's still operational, explain that in that culture, there were no last names. Jesus was merely known as the son of Joseph. Yeshuah bar Yousef. At least until He began His ministry. Then He named Himself Yeshuah bar Hadama, Jesus, the Son of Man.

The word 'Christ' means 'Annointed One' in Greek as does the word 'Messiah' in Hebrew

"Christ" is not His middle name. Remember, they distinguished each other in the for of _________, son of ____________. For example: James, son of Zebedee. Thus He would be Jesus, son of Joseph or in with the real Hebrew name "Yoshua" (pronounces Yo-SHU-a), son of "Yosef" (YO-sef).

I think it's an honest question if she is sick or having some delusional thoughts (senility?). All you can basically do is try to explain otherwise.
