Jesus Christ is God's name in the NT. In the OT God's people reffered to him with many names, most of which were more like titles than names, for example Jehovah Jireh (provider) Jehovah Nissi (prince of peace) I am (from the burning bush), Counsellor. Like I said, there were many names that God's ppl referred to Him as in the OT.

No one knows.

Exodus 6:3 - And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.

This is an Anglicization of the Hebrew word YHWH, what is normally called the Tetragrammaton and is assumed to be a kind of short version of the name of God, a kind of acronym. YHWH is often pronounced "yah-weh", but not by Hebrews.

Notice that God defines his name in a strange kind of way in Exodus, "by my name JEHOVAH", as if there is another name God also goes by which would account for the Jewish legends around the name.

From the wikipedia article on the Tetragrammaton:

There is a Jewish tradition that the actual name of God, only known to and stated by the high priest, was actually 72 letters long. The name was written out on a long strip of parchment, then folded and slipped inside the fold of the high priest's bejeweled breastplate. When someone would ask the high priest a question of Torah, or Jewish law, the high priest could invoke the Name, wherein the 12 jewels, representing the 12 tribes of the Israelites, would light up in a certain order whose meaning was, too, only known to the high priest. Through the power of the 72-letter name of God, the high priest communed, as it were, with the Almighty.

Gods have had thousands of names given by thousands of religious beliefs over thousands of years.

You need to be more specific as to which deity you are referring to, among which culture, which time period. The names given to most of the gods are of course lost in pre-history.
