God is a universal God.
God's name in the Torah is יהוה (YHWH). Other names which refer to God (such as Elohim) are more generic and can in certain cases actually refer to such authorities as judges (Exodus ch.21-22).
Over the course of the exile, the exact pronunciation of God's name יהוה has been lost. (The usual transliteration, Jehovah, is according to Jewish tradition an inaccurate rendition based on a misunderstanding of the the way יהוה is printed in such vocalized texts as Hebrew prayer books and printed Tanakhs.)
The name of God is not pronounceable, partly due to to a religious prohibition for Jews (Talmud, Sanhedrin ch.11), and partly due to the fact that the way in which it is pronounced has been lost to history. While the Temple in Jerusalem still stood, only the Kohen Gadol would pronounce the name of God (יהוה) and only one day a year. The remainder of the time, less explicit names of God, such as Adonai or Elohim, were used; and that is what we do today too.
