JHVH
n 1: a name for the God of the Old Testament as transliterated

IHVH \IHVH\ [Written also {JHVH}, {YHVH}.]
A transliteration of the four constants forming the Hebrew
tetragrammaton or "incommunicable name" of the Supreme Being,
which in latter Jewish tradition is not pronounced save with
the vowels of adonai or elohim, so that the true
pronunciation is lost.
Note: Numerous attempts have been made to represent the
supposed original form of the word, as Jahaveh, Jahvaj,
Jahve, Jahveh, Yahve, Yahveh, Yahwe, Yahweh, etc.
