P.S. "Moses" is not Hebrew either, his name would be "Moshe" in Hebrew.

You don't know any Hebrew, you're using a Latinized spelling that's only 500 years old. I just linked Hebrew alphabet and phonics listings that show there is no J letter or J phonetic enunciation in Hebrew.
Click the link.
A distinctive usage emerged in Middle High German. [3] Gian Giorgio Trissino (1478–1550) was the first to explicitly distinguish I and J as representing separate sounds, in his pistola del Trissino de le lettere nuωvamente aggiunte ne la lingua italiana ("Trissino's epistle about the letters recently added in the Italian language") of 1524.

"Jod"? There is no such Hebrew letter. It's called a "Yod". And pronounced the same as spelled.

Go tell me what the pronunciation is for Strong's #2424 (Iesous). Copy paste it for us, tell us what it says.

I'm not answering any questions until you answer my last two, that's how dialogue works.

It's ironic because you are claiming to be wise as well...

No, there is no letter j in (Ancient) Hebrew.

j came later as a derivative of i, which is why iesus (in Latin) became jesus.

And even IF it were always pronounced as the "j" sound, that would not change the fact that "s" and "sh" and "shua" and "sus" are different sounds and therefore the two names "yeshua" and "jesus" are NOT pronounced the same.
