The Holy Name of Jesus Roman Catholic Church is a parish church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York located at 207 West 96th Street at the corner of Amsterdam Avenue in the Upper West Side neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. It was built in 1900 and was designed by Thomas H. Poole in the Gothic Revival style.

The parish was under the administration of the Franciscans for 30 years, between 1990 and 2020. The parish has an attached elementary and middle school, as well as a community center on West 97th Street.

On May 8, 2015, the parish was merged with that of St. Gregory the Great.[1] The Church of St. Gregory the Great was deconsecrated and closed on June 30, 2017.[2]
