There is literally zero chance that anyone was named Jesus Christ. The word (not name) “christ” means “king,” and was attached to the name centuries after he supposedly lived.
I also read somewhere that the real person he may have been based on was named Benjamin. No idea if that source was credible, I just remember it vaguely.
True, but scholars do have Roman records of a Jesus of Nazareth, that matches the description of Jesus and his followers. This is a man though, but there is relative proof of a guy that did exist.
Also there are lots of early depictions of Jesus with a wand, and if you are interested in a detailed secular history I recommend the book Zealot By Reza Aslan.

Also his name would’ve been something more like Yeshua, not Jesus.

Benus Christ!
Correct, his name was Oily Josh

I thought the mindless pedants were supposed to have stayed on reddit?
“mindless pedant” is an oxymoron.
You tell 'em, you mindful pedant!
You can’t spell “oxymoron” without “moron”.
Along with the 14 year olds who just learned about atheism yet here we meet.
