A number of monograms of the name of Jesus have been used in Christian art and symbolism:
- The IHS (or IHC or JHS) monogram of the name of Jesus (i.e. the traditional Christogram symbol of western Christianity) is derived from the first three letters of the Greek name of Jesus (ΙΗΣΟΥΣ), Iota-Eta-Sigma. There is also a variant form, IHC, using the lunate sigma (i.e. with the Greek letter sigma equated to Latin-alphabet "C" due to the common "lunate" form of sigma (i.e. IHCOYC).
- The Labarum or Chi Rho symbol is derived from the first two letters of the word "Christos" (ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ) in the Greek alphabet.
- The monogram IC XC is formed from the first and last letters of ΙΗΣΟΥΣ ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ (Jesus Christ) in Greek (again, using the "lunate" form of the letter sigma of the Roman and Medieval periods).
- ΙΧΘΥΣ and ΙΧΘΥϹ (which literally means "fish" in Greek) consists of the initials of the Greek words Ἰησοῦς Χριστὸς Θεοῦ Υἱὸς Σωτήρ meaning "Jesus Christ, God's son, saviour" (thus giving rise to the Christian fish symbol).
- IX: the first letters of Iesous Christos (ΙΗΣΟΥΣ ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ) in Greek.
- ΧΡΣ and ΧΡC, from the Greek ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ and ΧΡΙΣΤΟC, meaning Jesus.
- INRI = Iesus Nazarenus, Rex Iudaeorum (Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews) John 19
- INBI = From the Greek, Ιησούς Ναζωραίος Βασιλεύς Ιουδαίων and Ἰησοῦς ὁ Ναζωραῖος ὁ βασιλεύς τῶν Ἰουδαίων both meaning Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews.
- ⳨ (Tau Rho) - Staurogram. It combines the Greek letters tau (Τ) and rho (Ρ) and make them look like a cross. Derives from the Greek words for "cross" (σταυρός) and "crucify" (σταυρόω).
