I think it would be addressed, Jesus H. Christ.
I went to a Catholic highschool, and my best friend asked our religion teacher what Jesus' middle name was. She said that she didn't think that He had a middle name. He asked "then what does the 'H' stand for in Jesus H. Christ?"
I still don't know...

Hellion, my daddy told me the H was for Hellion.

Although there seem to be several explanations for the H, the simplest, and most plausible one I have found is that it stood for HOLY, as in using the phrase HOLY CHRIST.
It seems to be a combination of Jesus Christ and Holy Christ when used in an exclamatory manner.
