I have a request for the Latin-American community. Please, stop naming your sons Jesus. I know that naming a child after someone is a form of honor, kinda like naming your son Junior (or Bubba in these parts). It’s just that it makes things confusing and strange.
When spoken, it’s not a problem. I am cool with “heysoos.” It’s the written form that starts getting sticky. I guess it’s because I have such a high respect for the name that it is somewhat odd when I have to cc Jesus on an email about BRMBs.
It can be a considerable cause of confusion. “Were you talking about Jesus the King of Kings, Lord of Lords, the Holy Son of God, the Sacrificial Lamb, the omnipotent sustainer of all the universe, or where you talking about Jesus from accounting?”
So please, Spanish speaking Americans, stop naming your children Jesus, it is confusing us white folks.
