It's my undertanding that Jesus is derived from the Latin for the Old Testament Hebrew name Yeshua; you know, the one who fit the battle of Jericho (John Derek played him in The Ten Commandments).
Apparently it was a common name in those days for the homeboys in Roman Palestinia. Today, it's become very popular with yuppies who give their kids Biblical names, like Noah and...Joshua! So you see, it ain't just the Mexicans.
