Best Answer

Yeshu (ישו) or Yeshua (ישוע)

Yeshu is Hebrew, and more commonly used by Jews. Yeshua is Aramaic, and more commonly used by Christians.
Christians call him Yeshua (ישוע) or Yehoshua (Joshua in English).

Israeli Jews refer to him as Yeshu. (ישו)

The word Jesus comes from the Greek, and it is doubtful that Mary or Joseph used it, since they spoke Hebrew and Aramaic. Jesus was probably called Yehoshua ben Yosef by his parents.

What does Jesus' name mean in Hebrew?

There are 2 Hebrew names for Jesus:Jews use the word Yeshu (ישו) which has no meaning at all. It is a Hebrew translation of the Latin word Iesu.Christians use the word Yeshua (ישוע) (stressed on the u), which is a play on the Hebrew word Yeshu'ah (ישועה) (stress on the last syllable), which means "deliverance".It is most likely that neither word is correct, since Jesus was Jewish, and neither word is a proper Jewish name. Some scholars believe his name was Joshua (yehoshua, יהושוע), which means G-d will deliver.
