YHWH is mentioned over 7000 times in the Bible as God's name. It could be pronounced Yahweh or Jehovah.
Early in the second century, after the last of the apostles had died, the falling away from the Christian faith foretold by Jesus and his followers began in earnest. Pagan philosophies and doctrines infiltrated the congregation; sects and divisions arose, and the original purity of faith was corrupted. And God's name ceased to be used.
Psalms 83:18 says: 18 That people may know that you, whose name is Jehovah,You alone are the Most High over all the earth.

In the English Bible, Jehovah or Jah Jehovah. Jah, the shorten version of his name, being a special affection to close servants.

Jah, yah, or ah is also part of many Bible names.

Elijah means Jehovah is God.
Adonijah means Jehovah is Lord.
Joshua or Jesus means Jehovah is Salvation.

God's name is what true Christians are called by (Acts 15:14, John 17:26 and more) and what evil ones hate. Revelation 16:9, Ps. 44:20, 21.

HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF PEOPLE DID NOT USE YOUR PERSONAL NAME? HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF YOU WERE THE CREATOR OF SO MANY BOOKS IN THE WORLD, AND THEN PEOPLE REPLACED YOUR NAME WITH ANOTHER NAME OR A TITLE OF SOMETHING ELSE? HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF SOMEONE ELSE TOOK THE CREDIT FOR YOUR WORK? THIS IS HOW GOD FEELS WHEN YOU DON'T USE HIS PERSONAL NAME WHICH IS BROUGHT OUT IN THESE SCRIPTURES... EXODOUS 6:3, ISAIAH 12:2, 26:4, PSALMS 68:4, JUDGES 6:24, PSALMS 83:18
ALSO READ WHAT I FOUND OF WHY HIS PERSONAL NAME IS NO LONGER BEING USED AND WHY PEOPLE TOOK JEHOVAH OUT OF THE BIBLE...When J. M. Powis Smith and Edgar J. Goodspeed produced a modern translation of the Bible in 1935, readers found that LORD and GOD had been used in most places as a substitution for God's name. The reason was explained in a preface: "In this translation we have followed the orthodox Jewish tradition and substituted 'the Lord' for the name 'Yahweh' and the phrase 'the Lord God' for the phrase 'the Lord Yahweh.' In all cases where 'Lord' or 'God' represents an original 'Yahweh' small capitals are employed." Then, in an unusual reversal of the tradition of the Jews who read YHWH but pronounced it "Lord," the preface says: "Anyone, therefore, who desires to retain the flavor of the original text has but to read 'Yahweh' wherever he sees LORD or GOD"! On reading this, the question immediately comes to mind: If reading "Yahweh" instead of "LORD" retains the "flavor of the original text," why did the translators not use "Yahweh" in their translation? Why did they, in their own word, 'substitute' the word "LORD" for God's name and thus mask the flavor of the original text? The translators say that they were following orthodox Jewish tradition. Yet is that wise for a Christian? Remember, it was the Pharisees, the preservers of orthodox Jewish tradition, who rejected Jesus and were told by him: "You have made the word of God invalid because of your tradition." (Matthew 15:6) Such substitution truly weakens the Word of God. In 1952 the Revised Standard Version of the Hebrew Scriptures was published in English, and this Bible, too, used substitutions for God's name. This was noteworthy because the original American Standard Version, of which this was a revision, used the name Jehovah all through the Hebrew Scriptures. Hence, the omission of the name was an outstanding departure. Why was it done? In the preface to the Revised Standard Version, we read: "For two reasons the Committee has returned to the more familiar usage of the King James Version [that is, omitting the name of God]: (1) the word 'Jehovah' does not accurately represent any form of the Name ever used in Hebrew; and (2) the use of any proper name for the one and only God, as though there were other gods from whom he had to be distinguished, was discontinued in Judaism before the Christian era and is entirely inappropriate for the universal faith of the Christian Church." Are these sound arguments? Well, as discussed earlier, the name Jesus does not accurately represent the original form of the name of God's Son used by his followers. Yet this did not persuade the Committee to avoid using that name and to use instead a title such as "Mediator" or "Christ." True, these titles are used, but in addition to the name Jesus, not instead of it. As to the argument that there are no other gods from whom the true God had to be differentiated, that is simply not true. There are millions of gods worshiped by mankind. The apostle Paul noted: "There are many 'gods.'" (1 Corinthians 8:5; Philippians 3:19) Of course, there is only one true God, as Paul goes on to say. Hence, one great advantage of using the name of the true God is that it keeps him separate from all the false gods. Besides, if using the name of God is "entirely inappropriate," why does it appear almost 7,000 times in the original Hebrew Scriptures? The truth is, many translators have not felt that the name, with its modern pronunciation, is out of place in the Bible. They have included it in their versions, and the result has always been a translation that gives more honor to the Bible's Author and hews more faithfully to the original text. Some widely used versions that include the name are the Valera translation (Spanish, published in 1602), the Almeida version (Portuguese, published in 1681), the original Elberfelder version (German, published in 1871), as well as the American Standard Version (English, published in 1901). Some translations, notably The Jerusalem Bible, also consistently use God's name but with the spelling Yahweh.

All beautiful names belong to God, Yahweh, Allah, All-merciful, All-powerful, All-sufficient, The Everlasting. He is the First & He is the Last.

So my dear friend, God is not begotten & God has not begotten, therefore, God All-mighty is God.

God is God, is not coming from a race as humans do.

Humans are His creation & God is the All-creator!

God's name is Yahweh, sometimes shortened to Yah in the Bible. Jesus is the anglicised version of Yahoshua, which means Yah saves!
Jehovah is not correct being an amalgamation of the vowels of adonai and consonants YHWH.
