Thank you Humble for your submission.
I agree that both Jesus’ birth and His name point to His deity.
First, His mother, Mary was conceived of the Holy Spirit (Luke 1:35, Matthew 1:20). Thus rightfully making Him, the Son of God.

Secondly, like you pointed out, His name, Emmanuel (meaning God with us), as prophesied by Isaiah (Isaiah 9:6-7), clearly identifies the Child who was spoken about, as God.

Thank you for your submission and insights.

Grace.
