Y'shua haMashiach The name by which He was known, not an English transliteration of a Greek transliteration.

Actually, that is a back-translation from the Greek New Testament which we have. There are no extant writings that refer to Christ as Y'shua. Don't sneer at the Greek name of Iesus.. It's the name that the New Testament used.
