You can call him whatever you want, just seems like your rhetoric is aimed at elevating yourself above your fellow Christians and showing that you practice better devotional etiquette.

Oh no, let us all be equals and strip down naked and worship him in a pig sty by dancing to heavy metal?
After all, it is all equal.
And hey, why don't we misname him William?
The US is a definitively secular nation, founded on complete separation of the State and religion. The Left Wing of US realise this but don't realise that pure freedom requires as low tax and free access to guns as possible. The Right Wing of US don't realise that secular pure freedom means the LGBTQ+ and abortion agendas both end up in line with US's liberty-first ethos.
It is left-wing to be pro-life. You are backing poor babies being born at the inconvenience of the already-born. Go figure.
When the Jewish leaders and crowd demanded Jesus' crucifixion, they called him
"Jesus, who is called Christ" or "the King of the Jews," rejecting him as their Messiah and demanding his death to Pilate, shouting "Crucify Him!" for claiming divine or kingly status. They referred to him by his name, Jesus, and titles implying kingship or Messiahship (Christ), which they saw as sedition against Rome.
They absolutely did not call him that. That is a translation hoax/error. They called him Yeshua or some old-Hebrew accented Jews would have called him Yehoshua.
He was unanimously known as Yeshua or Yehoshua. The name Jesus came from ethnic overwriting of his name and identity. They began to make him look more caucasian too at times, in visual depictions and called him a name that sounded far less Jewish. This was all intetnionally done to erase the 'Jewishness' from Christian theology, including denying that Christianity is merely a Sect of Messianic Judaism that believes gentiles are fully equal to Jews now as long as they submit to the Jewish God in triune form.
I find it just as abhorrent as if Yeshua were Arab and they de-Arabised his name or if he were Germanic and they de-Germanified his name. The motive was malicious, blatantly intentional and not one I ascribe to. I conform to it merely to not cause drama with fellow Christians because dividing the Church has clearly become a major error Christians made and the name of the Lord is a battle for much later when those calling him by a deJewified name shall face judgement. For now, they have 'invincible ignorance' excuses in many cultures. Later, they won't. The Lord will demand his name be said correctly and those that intentionally refuse to will face the righteous judgement.

Yes, "Jesus" is the English form of the Greek Iēsous, which itself comes from the Hebrew/Aramaic name Yeshua (ישוע), a common short form of Yehoshua (Joshua), meaning "salvation" or "Yahweh saves". While Yeshua(pronounced roughly "Yeh-shoo-ah") was his actual name in his time and region, it evolved through Greek and Latin transliterations into the English "Jesus" over centuries, a normal linguistic process.
So, Yeshua is the original name, and Jesus is the familiar English version, reflecting a natural linguistic journey.
