Jehovah is God's PERSONAL name. See Ps.83:18, Ex. 6:3, Isa.12:2, Isa. 26:4. King James Bible. In the New World Translation, the name appears around 7,000 times. It is derived from the Hebrew letters YHWH.

The God the father that most refer to that was adopted from the Jews is commonly called Yahweh (YHWY) but the Jews stopped calling him by name a long time ago as the name is too sacred. Earlier the Jews worshipped a father god called El who has various combined names like El Shaddai and El Ohim and the name. IsraEL is derived from El. Both YHWY and El were originally Canaanite deities that the Jews ( who were ethnically very similar to Canaanites) adopted. Originally El was YHWY's Father. These 2 gods became confused and combined by the Jews. Jehovah is an Elizabethan mistranslation of YHWY

Yes there are 100 names of God in Holy Quran (Muslims holy book) And muslims also believe on the same God that Christians believe.

God has many names.
YHVH, for one.
Jehovah.
Adonai.
I can't think of any more right now, but I think there are at least sixty others.

Yahweh (I think that's how you spell it) that's what He called Himself in the Bible.
