No, they did not have last names as we do back then. They would identify Him as Jesus of Nazareth (home town) of Jesus son of Joseph, etc. Christ is the Greek word for the hebrew word Messiah, and it means an annointed one, meaning He was the expected one who would be the King of the Jews.

The other posters have answered the direct question. I wish to point out a little recognized mechanism that may help in understanding some verses. When Jesus is refered to as Christ Jesus, he is the one who came from the Father to be with us. When he is refered to as Jesus Christ, he is the one who rose from the dead and returned to his rightful glory at the right hand of the Father. This points directly at his eternal being.

He was also referred to as "Son of David" by two blind beggars on the side of the road. But Jesus of Nazareth is the usual moniker he had. "Nazareth" is Aramaic for "Lily", such as the Easter Lily.
Very often, St Joseph is pictured* holding in one hand the Christ child, and in the other, a staff with a lily. This was a symbol of purity and non-concupiscence, and also the name of the town in which they lived.

Actually His last name was probably barjoseph. Jesus Barjoseph would be Jesus son of Joseph. As I understand it that is how the often named children in those times.

Jesus Christ: The only-begotten Son of God, the only Son produced by Jehovah alone. This Son is the firstborn of all creation. By means of him all other things in heaven and on earth were created. He is the second-greatest personage in the universe. It is this Son whom Jehovah sent to the earth to give his life as a ransom for mankind, thus opening the way to eternal life for those of Adam’s offspring who would exercise faith. This same Son, restored to heavenly glory, now rules as King, with authority to destroy all the wicked and to carry out his Father’s original purpose for the earth. The Hebrew form of the name Jesus means “Jehovah Is Salvation”; Christ is the equivalent of the Hebrew Ma·shi′ach (Messiah), meaning “Anointed One.”
CHRIST: This title from the Greek Khri·stos′ is equivalent to the Hebrew Ma·shi′ach, “Messiah; Anointed One.” (Compare Mt 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.

No, as others had spoke of, in Israel for the duration of Jesus time there have been no final names as we use now. Christ is the greek equivalent observe to the call "Messiah" or "Annoited One". It became right into a call to % out Him by means of fact the Messiah prophetized by using Isaiah, Daniel, and others prophets. The observe "Christ" has no direct relation to "go". despite if no longer precisely "final names" the persons of Israel used here varieties to tell apart those with an identical first call: * including a connection with the region of beginning or place of abode: Examples: Jesus of Nazareth, Joseph of Arimathea, Paul of Tarsus * including a connection with the commerce or job that the guy had: Examples: John the Baptist, Joseph the wood worker, Simon the Zealot * including a connection with the daddy with a prefix Bar or Ben which skill "son of" Examples: James son of Zebedee, James son of Alphaeous * including a nickname Examples: James the only, James the fewer, Simon Cephas or Simon Peter, Thomas Didymus (which skill "twin") Then, Jesus became into probable common as Jesus son of Joseph whilst he became into youthful, and at last replaced to Jesus of Nazareth whilst He began vacationing, and later as Jesus Christ.

Frak no. Christos is the Greek translation of Messiah, which is Hebrew for anointed one. There were many other anointed ones in Jewish history, by the way. Saul and David, and all of the Judges.

No. It is a title. CHRIST means anointed. It is the Greek word for Messiah.
