In Aramaic it sounds like this eeeee shhhh oooo
Ye is the "eeeee" sound, then the "Shhhhh" sound, then the U' with the silent ayin at the end, is the "ooooo" sound.
Thus, Yeshu' or Eshoo, is the best way to write it out in English. I prefer Yeshu'.
If you put an "a" at the end, you cause the reader to think and say ahhhh at the end...but the final letter is silent.
