Just a heads up, but Joshua is just another name for Jesus. https://www.behindthename.com/name/joshua OP was actually kinda clever with that one considering how much more rare or unlikely an actual Jesus would be.

Ehh, Jesus isn’t a super uncommon name.
When I was a little kid, we got a Christmas card from the newspaper delivery boy (I swear I’m not that old, but that sounds ancient), signed “Jesus.” My mom was a devout Catholic and got offended at what she saw as tip-motivated blasphemy. My dad let her cook for a bit, until she made to call the newspaper, then he delicately suggested that it was probably pronounced with an “h” sound. My mom probably sounds pretty unpleasant from this anecdote so far, but she laughed her ass off at herself for not thinking about that possibility and felt very sheepish about it.

I don't mean to say it's not a name in use, just that coke might not have as many Jesus bottles as they do Joshua bottles, depending on where this scene was made.
