I asked: What name is Jesus talking about in his prayer? And why is the name of God omitted from most Bibles including KJV?
Here is the questions with some answers:

PART 2:
Jesus states: I have made your name manifest to the men you gave me out of the world." (John 17:6)
So why don't most bibles show the name of God? Why don't they make God's name clear or evident like Jesus came on earth to do?
God's name was clearly of crucial importance to Jesus, since he mentioned it repeatedly in his prayers.
Yahveh or Jehovah, appears in the original scriptures 6800 times.
But it is omitted by most Bibles and Most Christians are ignorant about God's name.
God wants his name known.
Isaiah 43 :10 "You are My witnesses," declares the ">>LORD<<"
Original scriptures: "You are My witnesses," declares Jehovah.

The main thing is that knowing God's name is not what brings salvation. Belief and trust in Jesus Christ does. Moses had to ask what His name was and He just said, "I Am." If you read a true version of the Bible you will find God is more worried about what is in your heart than what comes out your mouth. Jesus came to let people know what the nature of God was, not His literal name. This should answer your Jehovah Witness question.

God's name is IAM. Jehovah is NOT God's name that is a MISTRANSLATION
Scholars recognize that this "patched-up" name of God invented a mere 700 years ago, with the vowels from "ADONAI" inserted between the consonants "YHWH" and then further altered with the letters, "J" and "V" is incorrect.
The following encyclopedias consider the name "JEHOVAH" to be FALSE Merits Student Encyclopedia; Encyclopedia Americana; The Jewish Encyclopedia; Encyclopedia International The Interpreters Dictionary of the Bible; The New Catholic Encyclopedia; The Universal Jewish Encyclopedia, and many more.
In addition to revealing His name as the "I AM" and "YHWH", God also tells us that His name is "JEALOUS" [Exodus 34:14], and " HOLY" [Isaiah 57:15].

Jesus Christ said "I am come in my fathers name". This is the name that God uses in the New Testament. Let me explain. Each name of God that we have, Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Nisse, etc. gives us a characteristic of God. He was revealing these characteristics a little at a time. In the New Testament, He comes to us as our Savior. This is what Jesus Christ means, annointed Savior. This is the saving Grace of our Creator. He enrobed Himself in flesh so that He could become the perfect sacrifice for our sins. This is why we are the name of Jesus Christ is so precious. We are saved by the name of Jesus Christ. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. We cast out demons in the name of Jesus Christ. Miracles are performed in the name of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the way, the truth, and the life. If we don't have Jesus Christ, we are whistling in the dark.

Many people in Ethiopia had trouble pronouncing my name, but when they learned that it meant "Lion-Hearted," they took to calling me Anbessa Lib (and thought it a very wonderful name, by the way!), which they could pronounce.
Now, that was not my given name, but both they and I knew who they were talking about. I have little doubt the eternal God of the universe is AT LEAST as intelligent as I.
