  • The Feast of the Holy Name of Jesus has been celebrated in the Roman Catholic calendar of saints, at least at local levels, since the end of the fifteenth century. The veneration of the Holy Name was extended to the entire Roman Catholic Church on 20 December 1721, during the pontificate of Pope Innocent XIII. The celebration has been held on different dates, usually in January, because 1 January, eight days after Christmas, commemorates the circumcision of the child Jesus; as recounted in the Gospel read on that day, "at the end of eight days, when he was circumcised, he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb. " Medieval Catholicism, and many other Christian churches to the present day, therefore celebrated both events as the Feast of the Circumcision of Christ, usually on January 1st. The famous preacher Saint Bernardino of Siena placed great emphasis on the Holy Name, which he associated with the IHS sign, and may be responsible for the decoupling of the two elements. It is observed on 3 January by Catholics following the General Roman Calendar, and on the Sunday between the Octave of Christmas and Epiphany, by Catholics following the General Roman Calendar of 1962. In the Lutheran Church, it is observed on 1 January
  • La venerazione del Santissimo Nome di Gesù ebbe inizio de facto nei primi tempi della Chiesa, come mostrano i cristogrammi che decorano l'arte paleocristiana. Soltanto nel XIV secolo, tuttavia, essa acquisì rilevanza liturgica, dando origine a un vero e proprio culto – grazie all'impegno per la sua diffusione e il suo riconoscimento ufficiale profuso da san Bernardino da Siena e dai suoi seguaci, fra cui soprattutto i beati Alberto da Sarteáno e Bernardino da Feltre. Al Santissimo Nome di Gesù il rito romano della Chiesa cattolica dedica una memoria liturgica facoltativa. La festa è celebrata anche nelle chiese anglicane e episcopali.
