Variation: Judas.
Variation: Judas (son of James).
Apostle Thaddaeus (NT) was the son of James (Luke 6).1
Judas (son of James) became an Apostle by Jesus the Christ (Ἰησοῦς) (NT).
I consider that Thaddaeus and Judas son of James as the same person as they appear in the same place in different, apparently exhaustive lists of the Apostles.
