False Messiahs are a terrible scourge upon mankind - and no, I do not mean here neither the "SAVE US Y2J" clod nor the blasphemous Triple H...!
Truth is, there are SEVERAL fake Jesuses out there (never mind False Messiahs...!) - and some have pushed the audacity so far as to giving their kids the middlename that goes so well with that Holy Name too...!
We must begin with (and remain in) the same business that Jess Franco, one of the first "antichrists of the entertainment industry" known to man, calls, evidently, his own: and so we have this guy
As said before, some push it so far as tagging the name with the appropriate title (of Salvador, if it wasn't clear) and a quick web search unearths the two most famous ones (and all of their accomplishments) in no time at all:

Yes, there is another noble one aside from Trevino - and as if it wasn't enough to have "original" filmmakers bearing the Name of Names, there's also a boxer or two (!) by that name out there - yep.

I personally don't know what could possess someone to have such a strong Jesus Complex By Proxy that it drives them to name their kids "Jesus Salvador" - why not complete it with "Del Mundo" while you're at it, huh?
I myself was very nearly named EMMANUEL - but that name means, merely, "Christ With Us" - it doesn't imply I'm the Second Coming!
Granted, none of these namesakes try to emulate or replicate what the Son of God did while on earth - nor have they tried to accomplish what He Is Said to Do once He Returns! Jess (Jesus) Franco actually strived to do everything DIAMETRICALLY DIFFERENTLY than a Redeemer would, indeed...!
Hmm... which means that the true offenders are the likes of Y2J (who claims to be coming back to WRESTLING in order to "save us" - right...) and Triple H (who loves to be called, alternatively, "the Game" and "the king of kings" - no less!)
And that is not surprising at all - wrestling hasn't any respect for anything!
Of course, I do not advocate extreme reactions to somewhat trivial things, but the fact remains that Christianity turns the other cheek way too much while the other religion of equal stature tolerates nothing at all - no cartoons, no teddy bears namesakes, NOTHING!
Christians CAN and SHOULD come back to a sterner and firmer stance too.
And if you love Jesus - keep Him UNIQUE and reserve His Name only for Him!
(Hmm... At the most, Jesus MIGHT be admissible as a MIDDLENAME - like "Maria de Jesus" for instance, a common name now in Portugal and Brazil!)
;)
