What do you think about Jesus Christ as the name for my first son?

Question

my girlfriend is pregnant and we know its a boy.

we're white so i dont mean like Hey-Sues

Christ would be his middle name do he would still have my last name

Answer 1

"Christ" isn't a name, it's a title.

There's no reason you couldn't name your baby Jesus, though.

Answer 2

It's nice, I guess lolz. My old neighbor was named Jesus, but they said it Hey-Sues

Answer 3

avoid that....its not good....use Mark or Matthew..

Answer 4

why not Lucifer?

I like it

Answer 5

Bad ideal

Answer 6

Much better choice than Pilate.

Answer 7

would defiantly make for a funny conversation the next time some one asked you, "have you found jesus?"

Answer 8

I couldn't care less what you name your kid.

Answer 9

go for it, he will get lots of attention at school!

Answer 10

Hispanics do it, just pronounce it differently...Why not you?

Answer 11

Can you imagine what it must be like watching your son be crucified?

No one can imagine that. So we use human language like "...a sword will pierce your soul and the thoughts of the many will be laid bare..."

But don't worry.  No one is going to crucify your son. How about John Paul?

Answer 12

Since you're not married and your girlfriend is pregnant you better watch out, the Obama supporters are going to tear you apart for that just as they're doing to Sarah Palin's daughter. Just be forewarned and when I get thumbs down you'll know you've been spotted by them.

As for the name, I really couldn't care less what you name him.  I'm pretty sure you'll be excommunicated from the atheists union if you name him Jesus Christ but if that's what gives you a charge then go for it.

Answer 13

If you are that desperate to be edgy go ahead.

My advice is to have respect for that name.

Answer 14

You should be ashamed of yourself for mocking Jesus!!

Answer 15

I have to answer this one...I have a friend whose last name is Raines..she had all girls but if it were me & I had that last name and had a boy I would have named him Jesus(but called him Jesse). But to show Jesus Raines everytime I showed ID..now I would love that..

Answer 16

Bad idea: too controversial.

Answer 17

Go for it!

Also... I figured if we can name our kids "Christian" I'm naming mine Jewish, Buddhist, and Hindu...
