God's name
My 11 yr. old son recently asked my wife what God's name was. He went on to tell her that he realized that the name of His Son was Jesus. So what should she have told him?

Re: God's name
We know, and pray to the Father through the Son. "Jesus" embodies the eternal name of God, therefore I voted the third option.
Yah = God.
Yahshua = God Saves/He will save his people from their sins.

I will only add that it is the Hebrew word "to be", I Am that I Am.
Meaning that He always, was, is and will be. He is the Father of all creation. He was probably never called by the Greek rendering Iesous and it is believed that the "J" was not used until about 500 yrs ago and that there was no "J" in ANY language until the 14th century England.
We most CERTAINLY do not baptize the way the early church did. However, having said that, I am NOT an advocate of baptizing using the name of Yeshua/Yahshua or other any other Hebrew derivative. We know who the name of Jesus represents and I always use the name of Jesus when I baptize someone, when I pray etc. I don't think there is anything wrong with that.
That being said, we must be very careful that we don't make the Greek rendering of "Hashem" Jesus, some "magical" incantation as if the Greek Jesus is THE way it was pronounced during bibical times. It certainly was NOT.

Re: God's name
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him the name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 2:5-11 says that Jesus has the name which is above every other name. Jesus is God's highest name.

Re: God's name
5 Let this minde bee in you, which was also in Christ Iesus:
6 Who, being in the forme of God, thought it not robbery to bee equall with God:
7 But made himselfe of no reputation, and tooke vpon him the forme of a seruant, and was made in the likenesse of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himselfe, and became obedient vnto death, euen the death of the Crosse.
9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and giuen him a Name which is aboue euery name:
10 That at the name of Iesus euery knee should bow, of things in heauen, and things in earth, and things vnder the earth;
11 And that euery tongue should confesse that Iesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
This is Philippians 2:5-11 from my 1611 KJV.
Note that there is no "J." Instead an "I" is used.
Also, the letters "u" and "v" are some times used in place of each other, nouns are capitalized, and some words have and extra "e" on the end.

I was thinking the same thing. lol Last time I said such a thing the world almost ended. 
And, His name is Yahveh. Yeshua means salvation. He is our salvation. Jesus...is just an English transliteration of a Greek transliteration of the Hebrew Yeshua. And since God is multilingual, it doesn't much matter what you use, IMO. He knows.

Ha! So when have I ever been afraid of telling the truth? Truth sets people free, not puts them in bondage. Questions are good and discussion is healthy. But for some to plug their ears and scream at the top of their lungs, "I can't hear you!" is precisely the reason many are stuck in a formula and don't go on to a relationship with Jesus, or Hashem, or Iesous or Yeshua or Yah..............or whatever!
I happen to call Him Jesus, but I am not offended when some use one of the other renderings to to refer to the One who redeemed us!
If people think that ONLY the name of Jesus pronounced in baptism is efficacious and none of the others "work" then, IMO, that is shear ignorance.
God didn't even speak the name "Jesus" to Mary.
