The New Testament was written in Greek. "Jesus" is the English version of the Greek "Iesous", for the Hebrew name "Yeshua", often translated as "Joshua." Yeshua is a contraction of "Yehoshua", which means "The Lord Is Salvation."

In Matthew 1:21, the angel explained to Joseph the meaning of the Christ's name:

"[Mary] will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."

[Hebrews 11:6]

Not if you wish to continue propagating the species.
