Yahweh is God's name - see Psalm 83:18. His name means "it causes to become". Some people think this is the name of the God of the "Old Testament", but Jesus asked us to hallow God's name in the Lord's prayer - which name was he referring to, and what name would the disciples have understood that to mean - Jehovah or Yahweh.
In Hebrew, they didn't used to write the vowels, they only wrote constanents - so they would write YHWH when they came across God's name in writing text. As the Jews stopped pronouncing God's name as they felt it too sacred to pronounce, the actual pronunciation of God's name is now lost. So, some say Yahweh, others say Jehovah in English.

Yahweh is Yehova, the true Creator. John said that "God [Yehova] is love." (1 Jn 4:8, NIV) This is quite shocking, for there are many who would say they know what love is. They might have a counterfeit of love, but true love is not known by them.
Without Yahweh it is not at all possible to know true love nor to know your true purpose. You will only live a lie.

Yahweh (one of the many names of "God") is within all I's. Is the only true I, playing hide and seek, waiting for all I's to find out who the true I is. The true I AM in all I AM's.

The following HP has a lot to explain about God's name. It belongs to a Hebrew Scholar. Be sure to read the questions at the bottom of his page.

Indeed, it seems that the true pronunciation of God's name has not been lost as presumed by some.

What is Yahweh? God is God and there is no one like the Lord God.
Who is Yahweh? The nature of God is absolute perfection known as holiness, God cannot abide with imperfection. God is love. God is sovereign. God does not love as humanity loves, but God's love is pure. God is also not mocked, and He repays everyone according to their deeds whether good or evil. God is faithful. The list of God's nature goes on and on. You must draw near to the Lord to really know Him. If you draw near to God, then God will draw near to you.
