Jesus H Christ
In the expression 'Jesus H Christ, I’ve discovered what the H stands for. Bearing in mind the alleged circumstances of his birth, it's obviously Haploid.
(I’ll move this to Humour shortly, but thought I’d put it here to begin with, since there'll be enough biologists to understand it .) Oolon |

I thought it was an inherited father's name, "Hallowed", as in "our father, who art in heaven, HALLOWED be thy name." If he was born in Scotland, he would be "Jesus MacHallowed." In Holland, "Jesus Van Der Hallowed." In Russia, Jesus Hallowedovich."

Hah! But, it's hard to be original anymore... looks like it was taken as noted above, so we'll have to go with the runner-up, assuming J.C. was made through parthenogenesis of a Mary ovum: Homozygous. (Some tweaking required as parthenogenesis in humans exclusively makes females.)
