The name is borne in the Bible by the Son of God and the Virgin Mary, the long-awaited Messiah who came to bring eternal life to all who accepted him as savior.

The name, an equivalent of Joshua, is bestowed in honor of Jesus Christ (c. 4 B.C.-c. A.D. 29), the founder of the Christian religion and son of God and the Virgin Mary, regarded by Christians to be the promised Messiah. Unlike most Christians, who decline to use the name Jesus out of respect, Christians in the Spanishspeaking world commonly bestow it to bring the bearer under the special protection of the son of God.
