Because "my father's name" doesn't mean Jesus; there is a myth here adopted in order to teach. Jesus knew himself only as the Son. Check out 'The Message' version: "If I were simply speaking on my own account, it would be an empty, self-serving witness."Nechemyah said:if Jesus is the name of the Son why doesnt John 5:43 corresponds with his name as the God of Israel who the Israelites followed.

"John was a torch, blazing and bright, and you were glad enough to dance for an hour or so in his bright light. But the witness that really confirms me far exceeds John's witness. It's the work the Father gave me to complete. These very tasks, as I go about completing them, confirm that the Father, in fact, sent me. The Father who sent me, confirmed me." (~The Message)
