Jews do in fact write most of the names of God. However, any document that one of His names is written on becomes holy and cannot be destroyed, it must be given a kosher burial. Therefore, on any piece of paper that may potentially be destroyed or thrown away, none of His names are written in full. Although many Jews won't write the word 'God' in full, many do as it's not of Jewish origin.
God's true name is represented by the letters 'yud, hei, vav, hei', which in turn, are represented by the English letters of YHVH. His true name was only used in the Temple, and with the Temple's destruction we have lost the correct pronunciation.
In the Tanach (Jewish Bible), there are 72 different names used for God in the original Hebrew. In truth, these are not actual names, but rather descriptions of Him that are based on the context of the discussion. In daily conversation, most Jews call him HaShem which means 'The Name' in reference to His true name.
