Plenty of Judes, though. And I believe that during the Puritan period in England at least, any biblical name was considered fine, regardless of what the character was famous for - people would sometimes let their bibles fall open at random and give the new baby the first name on the page. At that time, Jezebel was used for sure; though I don't think they'd have been brave enough to go the Jesus route.
