Taboo name Jesus?

It looks like the use of JESUS as a given name was taboo in most European countries except Spain an Portugal. Does anybody know why this wasn't a problem in these two countries?

(I did check quite a number of google hits, but they all repeated, what I knew already, but didn't explain why)
