The name of Jesus is powerful however not everyone who call it get the result.
According to philippians 2:9-11

       Douay-Rheims version 

For which cause God also hath exalted him, and hath given him a name which is above all names:That in the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those that are in heaven, on earth, and under the earth:And that every tongue should confess that the Lord Jesus Christ is in the glory of God the Father

Have you ever called the name Jesus in a particular situation, and nothing happened? Before a an incident occurs, You would hear the reciting scream of the name JESUS! JESUS! until event fades away yet it turned out to be the inevitable that claimed lives. Does that mean the name of Jesus is not working?
Now let's take a look at the untold reasons.

CALLING WITHOUT REVELATION

In the name lies Power, dynamic ability to cause a change - Dynamis The reason why the name is not working or effective for some people is because they are not calling the name of Jesus with revelation, and also, they are calling the name with fear and without faith. I know of a footballer that goes by the name Jesus. So, when when you called, Jesus without faith or revelation, you are just calling that footballer's name.

CALLING WITHOUT AUTHORITY

The lack of authority to use the name might also make it look disappointing when didn't work.
God does not lie, the name of Jesus is the ultimate, no demon can stand the name. But they may become resistant when they find authority wanting.

Using the itinerant Jewish exorcists as a study.

Acts 19:13-17

13]Now some also of the Jewish exorcists who went about, attempted to invoke over them that had evil spirits, the name of the Lord Jesus, saying: I conjure you by Jesus, whom Paul preacheth. [14] And there were certain men, seven sons of Sceva, a Jew, a chief priest, that did this. [15] But the wicked spirit, answering, said to them: Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you? [16] And the man in whom the wicked spirit was, leaping upon them, and mastering them both, prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. [17] And this became known to all the Jews and the Gentiles that dwelt at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified

CALLING WITH DOUBT

*CALLING WITH IGNORANCE *

*CALLING WITHOUT CONSCIOUSNESS *

UNWILLINGNESS TO ACCEPT THE NAME

NON INTERVENTION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

Luke 10:17 DR version

*[17] And the seventy-two returned with joy, saying: Lord, the devils also are subject to us in thy name.

Start calling the name of Jesus in the right way and it will work for you.
