Jesus the Annointed
Yeshu (YEshu) or Yeshua (YeSHU'a) is the original Hebrew version of the name Jesus; possibly a contraction of Yehoshua (YehoSHU'a = Joshua).
Mashiakh (maSHI'akh) means Annointed. It has evolved into Messiah in English,and similarly in other languages. Annointing a king (cf. Saul, David), usually by a prophet or priest, was customary on his accession to the throne, as a sign of favour in the eyes of God.
Christ also means Annointed, from the Greek khriein = to annoint (the New Testament was written in Greek). Khristos means annointed in Greek.

: Yes, "Yeshua" is Jesus (Isa in Arabic). Let's wait for someone to come up with the rest.

Jesus Christ
Joshua is Jesus
ha-Mashiah is Christ.
(ha is a definite article similar to "the")
It would be rather Joshua ha-Mashiah

Of course not Joshua but Yeshua in Hebrew.
ha-Mashiah is Christ.
