Over the past few thousand years people have "tweaked" the exact year that that they think Christ was born and the year he died but they are all within a few years of each other.

BC and AD were used to mean Before Christ and After Death .

If you are too young to understand BC and AD the let me refer you to

BCE and ACE

Before common Era and After common Era. This is just a non religions way of saying BC and AD. It is "politically correct". so, Christ lived from *about* the year 1 until the year 33 AD... but, as I said people have tweaked calendars over the years so its a few years off in either direction but you get the idea.

What was it called when Jesus was alive?

Answer:[Assuming that the question means what the time period was called during that time period....] It was centuries after the life of Jesus that anyone started referring to time as BC and AD. When Jesus was alive, nobody called it AD or BC. The Romans counted years from the foundation of Rome. Some countries would refer to such-and-such year of the reign of such-and-such king.AD actually stands for "anno Domini," Latin for "year of the Lord." AD 1 is supposed to be the year of his birth, although there is no guarantee that this was calculated correctly. See the link below.
