The meaning of the name Immanuel, "God with us", speaks of God, not the bearer of the name. This if often true of Hebrew names. For example, when Abraham called the place where he sacrificed the ram “Jehovah-jireh”, meaning “Jehovah will provide” (Genesis 22:14), was he saying that the place was Jehovah Himself?
Jesus came to declare the only true God. (John 1:18; 17:1,3,25,26; 1 John 5:20) Jesus came to offer his unblemished flesh in sacrifice to the only true God for the sin of the world, thus providing for reconciliation between God and man. (John 1:29; 3:16,17; 6:51; Romans 5:10,12-19; 1 Corinthians 15:21,22; 2 Corinthians 5:18,19; Ephesians 5:2; Colossians 1:20-22; 1 Timothy 2:5,6; Hebrews 9:14; 10:10; 1 John 2:2; 4:14; Thus, through Jesus, God is indeed with His people.
