I'm not fond of Joshua either, but it bothers me less then the other two name for Christ at all so I while I dislike Joshua I don't mind it being used. Where as Yeshua and Jesus I do mind cause I associate them both with Christ.

But Jesus as a history of usage in Hispanic countries, as Christos in Greece, and people actually use it as a form of reverence.

I'm not saying people couldn't use the names I just prefer not to I rather use His titles rather then His name :).
