Yes, and you can read it in John's gospel account, in any translation, including the Douay-Rheims Bible:

"Pilate had a notice prepared and fastened to the cross. It read, 'JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS''JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS'. Many of the Jews read this sign, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the sign was written in Aramaic, Latin and Greek." John 19:19-20 N.I.V.

Pontius Pilate was the Roman authority enabled to condemn prisoners to death, by crucifixion or other means. He examined Jesus of Nazareth, found no fault with him and said so, but the crowds howled for his crucifixion, preferring to have Barabbas released to them rather than Jesus of Nazareth, who had gone openly about, doing good and healing many (John 19:1-16).

That is one example of a man - who was most certainly an enemy of Jesus - addressing him publicly as 'Jesus of Nazareth' and in three languages at that. A very public, clear and unequivocal declaration of just who this person was who he had crucified.
