Was Jesus “the Son” Even before He Became Man?

Question:

Was Jesus "the Son" even before he became man?

Answer:

And the Word became flesh
and made his dwelling among us,
and we saw his glory,
the glory as of the Father’s only Son,
full of grace and truth. (John 1:14)

Yes, Jesus is always the Son. Jesus is the Son because of his relation to the Father. The Father is unbegotten whereas the Son is begotten of the Father.
