Family names are a relatively recent part if culture. People used to just be called where they were from, unless they were from a prominent family. "Jesus" which is actually a sort of translation or anglicized version of his real name "Jeshua" (disputed) is often referred to as "of Nazareth" which may have served as a last name if he actually existed which is becoming more and more contentious.

Christ means Messiah, so Jesus Christ means Jesus the Messiah or Jesus the Anointed One. ☺️

No, that would be "Hong".

Seriously, Jesus didn't HAVE a last name, like we do today; in most parts of the world, those were reserved for nobility. He'd simply have been called Yeshua of Nazareth.

The Jews back then did not keep last names. It was the Romans who introduced the practice.

As for "Christ" it's a title - not a name. Many things in the bible were "Christos" i. e. "anointed"

The Jews didn't keep last names. He was generally known as Jesus of Nazereth because he came from there. In celtic traditions last names usually indicate your clan or father, ie son of.

No. Christ means God's anointed one or Messiah.
