Dunno, but the Korean war vintage heliocopter known the the Army as the OH-13 had a Jesus nut at the top of the rotor mast. You can guess how it got the name.

When I changed the points in my old '56 IH S-120 4x4 there was a tiny little pin that held something in place. If you dropped it...Oh Jesus!

I mentioned to my mechanic that I had a hell of a time getting a small circlip, a "C" shaped spring clip that slips on a slotted or grooved shaft to retain whatever. I told him I kept losing them as they flew through the air to land I know not where. He said that's why they call them Jesus clips.
BIZZZEEEEEEENNNG "JESUS, THERE GOES ANOTHER ONE!!"
