Best Answer

It is a statement, sort of: Jesus the Christ = Jesus the Anointed One = Joshua the Messiah.

Jesus, originally Joshua in Hebrew, is a name, changed in the Greek New Testament to Jesus because male names in Greek do not end in "a".

The English name Joshua is a rendering of the Hebrew language "Yehoshua", meaning "Yahweh is salvation"

Christ is the English term for the Greek, Khristós, meaning "the anointed one".

It is a translation of the Hebrew, Māšîaḥ, usually transliterated into English as Messiah. The Messiah was the long await one, from the blood-line of King David, who would rescue Israel.

In post-biblical usage Christ became a name, one part of the name "Jesus Christ", but originally it was a title (the Messiah) and not a name.
