No. It doesn't. The Bible refers to the names of the righteous being written in the Book of Life.

Revelation 5 and Revelation 10 both mention a book that is held in His right hand. This book is a book of prophecy and revelation though, not a book of names.

Jesus in Luke 10:20 tells his disciples, "rejoice, because your names are written in heaven."

The Book of Life or the Lamb's Book of Life are mentioned several times in Revelation. This is a book in which the names of the faithful are written.

We could possibly assume that this book is held by Jesus Christ, since Jesus Christ is the aforementioned "Lamb". Then we could literally say that these names are written in his hands, since the hands hold the books which hold the names.

There are accounts of names written in heaven, names written in the book of life, Jesus' name along with the Father's name written on the foreheads of the 144000, and names written in the Lamb's Book of Life..no finding of names written in Jesus' hands.

that's an thrilling thought. yet i'm having a real stressful time information the bible. If there replaced right into a lifelike examination i'm going to get an F-. Is there an F-? in our u . s . we use proportion. seventy 4 is the easy failing grade. yet I agree that the Bible isn't literal. The lost image defined that the e book of Revelation or Apocalypse skill "to unveil/show". which skill it rather is a show-ation. If it rather is real then perhaps Revelation does not show the top of the worldwide however the top of the worldwide as all of us be responsive to it. And the appearance of the recent age of enlightenment. Jews call it the appearance of the Messiah. Christians call it the return of Christ. Cosmologist call it the recent Age. etc etc in many religion. perhaps all religions are stunning approximately one element, and that's an era of latest know-how will unfold liberating humankind from the darkness of lack of understanding and bringing them to knew understandings. New theologies. New thoughts approximately God. it fairly is basically a thought.

Indirectly, it does. Following on from Living Truth's answer, which refered us to John 10:28-30 where Jesus said no-one can snatch his sheep out of his hand (or the Father's, because they are one), turn to Isaiah 59:16:

God is speaking of his covenant people (represented by Zion). His people were saying, "The Lord has forsaken me, the Lord has forgotten me." But the Lord responds, "Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hand".

Given that the Jehovah of the Old Testament is further revealed in the person of Christ in the New Testament, and that His hands were pierced for the salvation of his new covenant people, it is not too much poetic licence to say that, yes, the names of the redeemed are engraved on Jesus' palms. It is symbolically true. And no-one can snatch his people out of his hands. What assurance!

Jesus told the Jews who were questioning Him none of the people God gave Him would be taken of His hands. (my paraphrase) John 10:28-29
So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, "How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly." 25 Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name bear witness about me, 26 but you do not believe because you are not part of my flock. 27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, R44 is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand. 30 I and the Father are one."

He was asserting His deity.
You might be thinking of the names of believers being written in the Lamb's Book of Life...
In Rev. 21:27-28 the English Standard Version
22 And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. 23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. 24 By its light will the nations walk, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it, 25 and its gates will never be shut by day - and there will be no night there. 26 They will bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations. 27 But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life.

I cannot find any reference to names being written in Jesus' hand though

No, not in His hands. We are written into the Book of Life.
