Q.  With regard to the belief that “Yahweh” is more acceptable than “Jehovah,” your web site states that names do not change from one language to the next. This is not true. The names John, Sean, Ian, and Juan are all the same name but in different languages...I’m quite sure that [Yahweh] does not expect us to pronounce the sounds of his name that we are incapable of pronouncing. Right?

A.  A person’s name does not change from language to language. You have simply given forms of a name in different languages. The fact remains that your given name is your name no matter which language you speak or which country you may visit.  You do not change your name to a French name if you go to France, for example. You do not have your passport changed to reflect a different name for each country you may visit.
            If names change, what is the English name of “Gorbachev”? Or the French? Or the Spanish?  What is “Clinton” in Russian, Swedish, or Japanese? Of course, Gorbachev is “Gorbachev” everywhere he goes in the world. The same for “Clinton.” There may be slight pronunciation differences, but the name would be transliterated (its letters rendered sound for sound) in each language.
            He would not condemn a slight mispronunciation anyway, so long as the willingness is there to follow His commands pertaining to His Name.  He would, however, condemn an attitude that says I will call Him whatever I feel like calling Him no matter what His true Name is.
            Remember, He decides what He shall be called.  We do not decide for Him.  No wonder the Third Commandment tells us explicitly to honor His Name and not to take it in vain (meaning allow it to come to obscurity either by neglect or substitution).  Repeatedly He admonishes to acknowledge His Name, 1Kings 8:3; to call on His Name, Ps. 99:6; to declare His Name, Rom. 9:17; to honor His Name, Ps. 66:2,4; to remember His Name, Ex. 3:15, and to magnify it, Ps. 69:30.
