what would you consider God's name?? would you say that calling him God was wrong cuz it is just a general term and can be used to refer to other gods?? would you say that his name is Yahweh? which is what YHWH is supposed to sound like...

Is it wrong to call a doctor "Doctor" or a mother "Mother" or a father "Father?" God said "I Am that I Am. Tell them I Am has sent you." If God is what he is like a doctor is what he is, there's nothing wrong with calling God God.

Exodus 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
I personally refer Him to as the Almighty God, and since no other gods names ever come out of my mouth, God knows I am only refering to Him and only Him. Praise the Lord.
Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Exodus 23:13 And in all things that I have said unto you be circumspect: and make no mention of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out of thy mouth.
Judges 10:13 Yet ye have forsaken me, and served other gods: wherefore I will deliver you no more.

God's only name is Jehovah.The name of his Son is Jesus.
Jesus taught us how to pray and the first sentence of the model prayer he gave us says__Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed or sanctified be your name. So Christians should use God's personal name and treat it as holy, just as Jesus did.

I would say his name is whatever you wish to call him...Yahweh, Jehovah, Allah, God, Lord, Heavenly Father, Holiest of Holy, Creator, etc.

God's real name is Yahweh. If you translate it, it means 'Jehovah.' When the Bible mentions His name, it either uses LORD (for the Father), Lord (for the Son), or something similar to, "I AM WHO I AM" or "I WILL BE WHO I WILL BE." This is used when Moses asks God what name he should give to the Israelites when they ask who sent him. God replied, "I AM WHO I AM." He said further, "You should say to the Israelites, 'I AM sent me to you." Look in Exodus for this.

it is pronounced Ye HOO VHEE. and it is YHVH, since there are no vowells or w's in the eevreet aleph bet. and it means Salvation is HE And SHE, as per TheOUR IMAGE given to TheSon of Man Adam as always and just again here in Parashas Bereeshees. where G-D is using Adam as an instrument to explain TheIMAGE of G-D, as both MALE AND FEMALE in ONE UNIQUE, And HOLY SPIRIT.
