Lol, technically there is nothing wrong with the name Judas. Just as there is nothing wrong with the name Lucifer(translated angel of light) a.k.a. Lucy for short. Lol

There is nothing wrong with the name Judas. Infact, you will love this name with the explanation below:

JUDE from the Strong's Exhaustive concordance (# G2455,loudas) is from the Hebrew origin (# H3063 – i.e Jehudah or Judah) which means celebrated, confessor of Jehovah and it is rooted in (# H3034) which means to Praise, thanks, shoot, give thanks, be thankful. In Hebrew, the meaning of the name Jude (Judah, in Hebrew) is Praise or the praised one. Jude is used in the Bible in opposite to Judas Iscariot to distinguish between the two apostles of Jesus with the same name. Jude is the English form of the name Judas(Greek form), while Judas is from Judah(Hebrew form) which literally means “to give thanks, or praise”. The English version of the name is used in most versions of the Bible to disassociate Jude from Judas Iscariot since Apostle Judas and Judas Iscariot have the same name. The name Jude is an English form of the Greek - Judas while Judah is the Hebrew origin.

Jude has 7 variant forms: Juda, Judah, Judas, Judd, Judsen, Judson and feminine Judith.

I hope this helps.
