The Lord’s Prayer, the only prayer Jesus taught as His own, does not include Jesus’ name.

The koine of John 14 indicates that anything asked in Jesus’ name will be granted, not that Christians are forbidden to ask others to ask as well.

Is God the God of the living or the dead?

No. John 14 doesn’t say you CANNOT ask others to ask, but He says it’s not going to work until you ask HIM

John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
