Yahweh, Jehovah, either name is fine with me. I'm glad you acknowledged he'd prefer to use Yahweh. I would have loved such a translation as one of my pet pieves is that we really are YHWH's Witnesses (or more appropriately a symbol of the Tetragrammaton and Witnesses on each Kingdom Hall; that would leave the door open for the Society to change from "Jehovah" to "Yahweh" as scholars decide which is closer.) Such a translation would have been great to use when talking to others about the Bible.
