[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it a lot different than the spanish name Jesus? I know we'd probably pronounce that differently, so maybe it's not the same. How often do teachers really say a student's name, actually? I'd not get worked up over it and just use other ways to get her attention, or call on her, etc.[/quote] It's different because Christians use Jesus's name outside of prayer all the time. There isn't the same reverence for the name of God in Christianity that there is in Judaism. Having said that, if you were so religious that you couldn't have uttered this name outside of prayer, you wouldn't have been able to write it either. But you did, in your title. So, I have to say that this isn't that you actually feel that your religion forbids it, you are just offended that this parent chose this name and want to make a point. You can't do that at the expense of the child's self esteem. [/quote]
