Jacob records in 2 Nephi 10: 3 that the previous night an angel revealed to him that the name of the Messiah would be Christ. This was already revealed 50 years earlier in a dream by Nephi that was recorded in 1 Nephi 12: 18.

2 Nephi 10: 3
3 Wherefore, as I said unto you, it must needs be expedient that Christ—for in the last night the angel spake unto me that this should be his name—should come among the Jews, among those who are the more wicked part of the world; and they shall crucify him—for thus it behooveth our God, and there is none other nation on earth that would crucify their God.

1 Nephi 12: 18 (wording from the 1830 Palmyra Edition)
18 And the large and spacious building, which thy father saw, is vain imaginations and the pride of the children of men. And a great and a terrible gulf divideth them; yea, even the word of the justice of the Eternal God, and Jesus Christ who is the Lamb of God, of whom the Holy Ghost beareth record, from the beginning of the world until this time, and from this time henceforth and forever.
