The word from the Hebrew Bible most commonly translated "God" or "gods" is 'elohim, the plural of 'eloah or 'el which means "lofty one" or "exalted one." The plural ending -im may indicate royal loftiness as well as plurality
The formal name of God in the Old Testament is "Jehovah" or "YHWH" (Hebrew yhwh), which comes from a root suggesting "I was, am, and will be forever." Some consider yhwh to be a name too sacred to be spoken; consequently, in many Bible versions, yhwh is translated "lord" (aka Jesus Christ).

YHWH - some translate and pronounce it Jehova and others Yaweh - the vowels were added to help pronounce it. It is not a part of the original spelling. A student of Hebrew could tell you more.
He calls himself 'I AM'
