When a word is transferred from one language to another, it is either translated or transliterated. When it is translated the meaning of the word is transferred. When it is transliterated it is the sound of the word that is transferred.
The transliteration of the Father’s personal name, as given in scripture, is actually YHWH, pronounced Yahuwah. The translation of this name is I Am That I Am.
It implies that the One who bears the name is self-existent from eternity past to eternity future. When Moses asked how he should answer when the Israelites asked who had sent him to them, the reply was: “I AM THAT I AM . . . Thus shall you say unto the children of Israel, I AM has sent me unto you.” (Exodus 3:14)
Just before He provides us with the ten commandments in Exodus 20 He says in verse 2 “I AM YHWH your Elohim, who has brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
While “Jesus” is commonly used to refer to the Son, it is actually from the Greek “Iesus,” which refers to the pagan god, Zeus.
The name of Yahuwah’s Son is very much like His own: Yahushua. As with the Father’s own personal, divine name, the importance of the Son’s name is found in its definition.
In John 5:43 we read ” I AM come in My Father’s name and with His power, and you do not receive Me [because your minds are closed]; but if another comes in his own name and with no authority or power except his own, you will receive him and give your approval to an imposter.” – very telling when we call Him Jesus……
In fact in Acts 4, the very chapter you are quoting, it says, “17 But to keep it from spreading further among the people and the nation, let us [sternly] warn them not to speak again to anyone in this name.” 18 So they sent for them, and commanded them not to speak [as His representatives] or teach at all in the name of Yahushua [using Him as their authority].” And hence His name was changed.
The beautiful meaning contained in the Saviour’s name is an all-encompassing revelation of the mighty salvation offered sinners. Yahushua means:
Yahuwah Save! (A cry for help to the only One who can help.)
Yahuwah Saves! (A joyous statement of fact.)
Yahuwah Saving (An present-tense immediate action.)
Yahuwah’s Salvation (An all-encompassing statement of who and what the Saviour is.)
When the angel Gabriel was sent to Mary to tell her she would bear Yahuwah’s Son, he told her what to name the Baby: “You will conceive in your womb, and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name Yahushua.” (Luke 1:31) Joseph was told the same thing by the angel: “You shall call His name Yahushua for He shall save His people from their sins.” (Matthew 1:21)
In Scripture, there are over 360 names or titles for the Father and the Son, from The Rose of Sharon, to The Provider.
Other names applied to the Father and the Son are: The Lily of the Valley, My Shepherd, My Healer, My Banner (in War), My Guide, My Light, My Bread, My Life.
Elohim, or El, means The Mighty One. In ancient times, parents would name their children under the inspiration of Yahuwah. This is seen in the many names which contain references to Yahuwah (Yah) and El.

And they will say, ‘YHWH is my Elohim.’”
