Ancient Origins of Name Jesus?

A while ago i discovered that the "Yahweh/Jehovah" name of the Lord/God of the Judaeo-Christian Bible seems to have early origins and has seeming possible matches in other cultures (see post here http://www.allempires.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=37415 ). (Some other people have also suggested Judah's name is evidence of the name Jhvh being as early as that. Yhwh was mentioned in Noah's blessing of Shem.) I have also wondered if the name Jesus/Yeshua also might have early origins and matches in other cultures mythologies too. Below is an example list of some possibly similar-to-Jesus gods/deities names.

Firstly the name Jesus has various different spellings/versions of Jesus/Iesus, J(eh)oshua, Je(ho)shua, Jehoshua(h), Yeshua, Jesuel, Isa, Ihs, (Yeishu?)

Celtic/Roman: Esus
Slavic: Jessis/Yezda,
Greek/Trojan: Jason, Theseus, Rhesus, Zeus/Ievs, Jeoud,
Hittite/Hurrian: Teshub,
Egyptian: Shu/Yshsh ("void/empty" / "sneeze/splutter"), Osiris,
Hebrew: Aish ("man, Adam"), Ishi "husband", Jeush, Joses, Isaiah, Jashar, Isra(el), Asshur, Jew, Jeoud, Jess(i)e, Josiah, Elisha, Moses,
Sumerian/Akkadian: Ziusudra, Is(h)kur, Ishullanu, Apsu, Enzu, Gishzida, Ninazu,
Elamite: Susinak,
Iranian: Shaoshyant, Gosh/Geus,
Afghan/Kalash/Kati/Kafir: Jestan/Jestak,
Indian: Vishnu, Shiva, Isvara,
Chinese: Joss,
West African: Eshu/Edshu,

From this list we selected 4 seemingly best candidates:
- Ziusudra: Jesus/Jehoshua means "God/Lord + salvation/saves" (and he & baptism is compared to Noah's Ark/Flood, and he is the seed of the woman), Ziusudra was a flood saviour (name means "he who saw life" or "spirit"? and he took the seed of all life in his ark) The two names maybe have 5/6 similar letters (z)iusua & j(e)osua.
- Ishkur: Ishkur is a wind/storm god also connected with thunder/lightning, clouds, hail, rain, streams, and the "silver lock of the heart of heaven". His beast vehicle is a lion(-dragon), (or bull). He was the son of An or Enlil, and brother of Utu, and twin brother of Enki.
- Aish/Ishi: Ishi is from "you will not longer call me Baali "master/lord" but will call me Ishi "husband" in a biblical prophet book.
- Shu/Yshsh: Joshua was in exodus almost as early as Genesis. Joshua was the son of Nun. Joshua came out of Egypt with Moses and his name might be Egyptian origin? Shu is associated with Num/Nun in the 3 Hermes. Massey linked Shu with Moses. Shu's name means "void/empty" or "sneeze/splutter", and his nature as a god is connected with "air, dry/hot, Atlas". The "void/empty" meaning of Yshsh is similar to meaning of Abel.
It looks like Shu/Yshsh might be the most likely (though Shu himself might have earlier origins, and he might possibly match Ishkur?)
I might be wrong though because Joshua's name was originally Hoshea/Oshea before being changed/altered to Joshua.

A related topic to this post's subject is the question of whether it was 70 or 72 or 75 souls who came down into Egypt with Jacob. So here is what we put together on that:

Was it 70 or 72 or 75 souls that came with Jacob/Israel down into Egypt? (Genesis 46, Exodus 1, Lxx, Acts 7, Josephus, Jashar.) Was Stephen wrong?
Firstly there is a common connection in myth etc of 10 & 12, 40 & 42, 70 & 72, 100 & 120. Eg 70/72 is found in biblical with the 70/72 nations of Genesis 10, the 70 elders/Sanhedrin, the Septuagint, the 70/72 disciples of Jesus. Numbers are also often sometimes rounded off.
However Stephen's 75 is probably from the Septuagint since i have seen that that source does say "75" in Genesis 46 & Exodus 1.

66 sons/daughters & grandsons/greatgrandsons, + 3/9 (Jose, Manasseh, Ephraim), + 1 (Jacob/Israel), = 70/75.

32/33 (6 s/b, 1/2 d, 4 s, 6/5 s (5/4 s, 1 s, -3 s), 3 s, +/- 1 d, -2 s, 1 s, 2 s, 2 gs, 4 s, 3 s) of Leah,
+ 14/18 (2 s, 10/9/7 s/gs, 2 s, - other sons, 1 gs, 1 ggs, 2 gs, 1 ggs) of Rachel,
= 47,
+ 7 (2, 4, 1) of Bilhah,
= 54,
+ 16 (2 s, 7 s, 4/3 s, 1 d, 2 gs) of Zilpah,
= 69/70,
+ 1 Jacob/Leah,
= 70/71/75,
+ 3 (Leah, Blihah, Zilpah, - Rachel),
= 75?
(1 missing in the Leah group has been proposed to be explained by "Jacob had another (missing) daughter" since verse 15 says "daughters (plural)", possibly though it might be either Jacob or Leah or the Canaanitess or Jochebed or Tamar or Hirah?)

Note by the way that Benjamins sons list differs between Genesis, Numbers, and Chronicles. (Judah's 5 sons in Chronicles also is different?)
