And where exactly did you learn that? Yeshua (ישוע, with vowel pointing יֵשׁוּעַ – yēšūă‘ in Hebrew)as a common alternative form of the name יְהוֹשֻׁעַ ("Yehoshuah" – Joshua) in later books of the Hebrew Bible and among Jews of the Second Temple period. The name corresponds to the Greek spelling Iesous, from which, through the Latin Iesus, comes the English spelling Jesus.

Sorry, no!

Iesous is phonetically Yay-soos, which has no relation to Yeshua nor Yehoshua.

If you were paying attention, you are already seeing that Yshu and Yay-soo are exactly the same. The s is usually added for Greek pronunciations

The Greek text uses the curse, not his name.

There are always those kook cults. One says it has to be yah the other says yah is the Egyption moon god. I pray the Holy Spirit takes them all out of their casting doubts.
