For the Abrahamic God, click on
Yahweh and
Adonai for the meanings of those names.
Jehovah derives from a combination of the letters of the Tetragrammaton and the modified vowels of
Adonai. The name God itself is from Middle English, from Old English, and finally from Indo-European
gheu- "to call, invoke".
