Yahweh is interpreted as God's name often first mentioned in Exodus 6:3 but it is interpreted that God first described his name to Moses as "I AM THAT I AM" or "I AM WHO I AM" in Exodus 3:14 which is God's description of himself in the first-person and Yahweh means "He Is" which is Moses' perspective of God in the second-person.
