Of course its not important what Jesus's last name was, or what name He used. What is important is that He Came and did what He did. This is the most activity I've ever seen in answer to this question. The fact is...The bible does not say what name He used. I take that as proof of the unimportance of the fact.
The main point is....Christ is NOT His last name. The word christ has no meaning at all in English.
Consider this though. Christ in the Greek means 'The anointed One and His anointing' He is the one who was sent.
Consider this too. You are also the one who is sent. Jesus sent you into the world to spread the news, to share the blessing. You are also in Christ. In the anointing.
Mark 16:14-20 (King James Version)
14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.
15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working , and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
If you will do the same God will be working and confirming the Word with signs following too
