Can only see first post because I dont have a login. But I've watched a video on the name's origins. And it's said it came from a old proto Hebrew pantheon of gods. Y****h being the thunder god. Lots of historical evidence pointing to this. And I've heard yet another person talk about in the time of Babylon the monotheistic idea came about to unit the Jews into a single culture. In a area very divided by different gods and people identifying with one or another. This culture gave rise to the three modern day Abrahamic religions.
To me this does not made my G-d any less real. If you believe in 1 His name doesn't matter. How you awaken to his existence is just like two people being born in two different places and having two different words that both mean sky. We understand our surroundings by first understanding iser surroundings. Perhaps they needed a story of a thunder war god to have the mental tools necessary to form a mental image and express what a creator is.
Whether it's God, Yehweh, the Dao or any other representation of the infinite of who's fabric we are cut it doesn't matter to me.
