No. Cassius is the name of one of the conspirators. His full name is Caius Cassius. He was the brains behind the conspiracy. Julius Caesar's full name in real life was Gaius Julius Caesar, but in the play he's just called Julius Caesar.

Who are the main characters of Julius Caesar by Shakespeare?

It depends on whose "story of Julius Caesar" we are talking about. In most such stories Caesar is the main character. However if we are talking about Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar (which is a play and not a story), Caesar is actually dead for most of the play, which suggests that he is not the main character. Some people have argued that the short appearance of his ghost just before the Battle of Philippi and Cassius's remarks about how he will die by the same sword as Caesar mean that Caesar's spirit is at work even after his death, until his murderers are dead. However, that is stretching a point. It is simpler to say that Brutus is the main character in the play, since the real focus is on him and on the kind of political idealism (or possibly naiveté) he demonstrates.

In act 1 the tragedy of Julius Caesar Cassius tells Brutus that the name Brutus is as Fair as the name of Cesar why does he say this?

In Act 1 of "Julius Caesar," Cassius tells Brutus that his name is as fair as Caesar's to emphasize Brutus's noble character and to persuade him to join the conspiracy against Caesar. By equating Brutus's name with Caesar's, Cassius aims to elevate Brutus's sense of honor and duty, suggesting that he has just as much right to influence Rome's future as Caesar does. This manipulation seeks to ignite Brutus's ambition and sense of responsibility to protect the Republic from tyranny.

Why Is Julius Caesar the title of Julius Caesar?

The most important character in Julius Caesar is not Julius Caesar, but it is Marcus Brutus. The reason why Shakespeare put Julius Cesar as the title is simply because it was more appropriate. It is the killing of Julius Caesar, which supplies the motive for the play. The death of Julius Caesar takes place before the middle of the play, however, his spirit dominates the entire work. It is the spirit of Julius Caesar, alive or dead, that supplies the struggle for Brutus and fellow conspirators.
