While I am certain that our Lord knows our hearts and in whom it is that we pray in the name of. Still, when I pray I have to wonder about this. I know, it may seem a non-issue to most of us, but it is something to think about. I hope that my intentions here are understood. I merely desire to evoke some thought about how we pray and to give pause to consider to whom we pray.

Interesting question indeed...  My initial thoughts:
New Testament was written in Greek.  The Greek says:
"IhsouV" which modernized is "Iesous" or Jesus.
Now some will argue that that is *not* how it is in hebrew or aramaic 
and they are absolutely correct.  **BUT** If we are to believe the NT 
was written in greek by the apostles, we also have to believe they new 
what Jesus' name was and how to write and pronounce it..
