Do you?
"Jehovah (/dʒɨˈhoʊvə/, jə-ho-və) is a Latinization of the Hebrew יְהֹוָה, one vocalization of the Tetragrammaton יהוה (YHWH), the proper name of the God of Israel in the Hebrew Bible." (Wikipedia)

Sounds as though you are accusing me of something. Like maybe I don't believe what God's Word says? I know who Jesus is. I know Jesus Christ will rule the Kingdom, which encompasses the whole of creation.
What I don't understand is why JW's have such a predilection for a vocalization of the Tetragrammaton YHWH, (Jehovah).
I never called my father by his first name when talking to him. Is that what you do when you talk to God the Father? Like God was your pal or your pet dog?
Galatians 4:6
And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
