No. This word is a made up word that some Christians use for the name of God. It resulted from a 12th Century mispronunciation of the actual Hebrew name of God.


See The Tetragrammaton for more information about the name of God.

Is Yahweh part of Catholic Mythology?

It is not so much a question of Yahweh being part of Catholic 'mythology' which isn't mythology, it's religion. As to whether Yahweh is identified as God in this religion, the answer would be 'yes' because Yahweh is the literal translation of the name of God in the Bible, which in the Jewish faith was the name of God that could not be uttered. The literal appearance of the name in the Hebrew language is YHWH, as there are no vowels in the alphabet. As the original biblical name of God in the Old Testament (Torah too), from which we derive 'Jehovah', YHWH is indispensable to Catholicism.
