Best Answer

Just to be clear on my answer, "Jehovah" did not became "Yahweh" neither "Yahweh" became "Jehovah".

"Yahweh" is a popular Hebrew transliteration of the tetragrammaton in the Old Testament

while

"Jehovah" is a popular English transliteration in the new testament.

These are both the names of our Almighty God, just in different languages.

Answer'Jehovah' is the German translation of Yahweh, the name once given by the people of the southern Hebrew kingdom, Judah, to their supreme God.
