Of the more than 400 names for God that we find in Scripture, at least 100 specifically apply to Jesus. Each name is a window through which we see Him more clearly. Such seeing leads to knowing. In the case of One as flawless and winsome as Jesus, knowing leads to loving. And loving Jesus is our paramount pursuit.
We cannot examine every name of Jesus here. We hope, however, to get you started and whet your appetite for further study.
