Christians say: Yeshua hamashiach (ישוע המשיח) (jesus the messiah)
Jews would use the term: Yeshu hanotsri (ישו הנוצרי) (jesus the nazarene)
His actual Hebrew name was most likely: Yehoshua Ben Yosef (יהושוע בן יוסף), which literally means "Joshua, son of Joseph"
Jesus is a transliteration of the Hebrew name Joshua

∙ 6y agoThe Hebrew word is "Yeshu", whether they believe in him as Messiah or not. He was called "Yeshu" in his lifetime; it was a common Jewish name.
(That being said, if you wanted to know what Jews consider Jesus to have been, at most, he would have been a false prophet from the Jewish perspective. As such, many Orthodox Jews won't even say the name "Jesus".)

- Son of God
- The Messiah
- Son of Man
- God
- Yeshua
- and all the other names for God in The Bible: the list is really long
Note: I came back to add another answer for you. Jesus is a personal God so in prayer you actually could say "Hey You, Jesus, Oh God, etc. I need you!". He really does not mind as long as you are not cursing him or are being disrespectful. But, don't think you can't get mad at him and yell at him. Go right ahead and then remember to listen for his sweet, still small voice in response to you.

∙ 6y agoChristians use the word Yeshua (ישוע) which is more likely the Aramaic name.Jews use the word Yeshu* (ישו) when referring to Christianity, which is likely a shortened form created in order to distinguish the Hebrew names of Joshua and Jesus.
*Note: There is a common myth that "Yeshu" is actually an acronym for the formula (ימח שמו וזכרו(נו (Y'mach Sh'mo V'Zichro(no)) meaning "may his name and memory be obliterated". The earliest known example of this myth comes from a medieval book called Toldoth Yeshu.
This has led to the accusation, first voiced by the anti-Judaist writer Johann Andreas Eisenmenger in his Entdecktes Judenthum, that "Yeshu" was always such a deliberately insulting term for Jesus. But there is no evidence that any of this is true, and in fact, most Jews are unaware of this.

If you mean Yiddish, it's Yezus
