Other names used include El, El-Elyon, Adonai and Hashem... Though the latter two aren't actually names, but Hebrew placeholders because pronouncing the name of Yahweh is a form of blasphemy.
Other users here claim Elohim is another name, but this is a plural noun meaning "the sons of El", so it isn't a name at all.
And Yahweh isn't the complete name anyway, it's Yahweh Sabbaoth. He was the Canaanite god of war (that's why he's such a warmongering, genocidal jerk in much of the Old Testament).
All these names are translated into English as "God" or "Lord", which hides the evidence of polytheism because of the fact that the names referred to different gods from different cultures pantheons. Their individual stories and traits have been combined to try to make a single... Sort of coherent narrative.
What's hilarious is that this is all evident in the text, but few religious people bother to read it or understand it.
As of January of this year they found that the tetragramaton was not really missing the vowels at all! It was simply discovered that it is on the very next line below it halfway between lines in over 1,000 different places.
It's now been identified. and the proper pronunciation in the English language would be. Yehovah. If you are in Israel the proper pronunciation over there would be yehowah.
It should be noted that this verified pronunciation is amazingly close to what Jehovah's Witnesses have been telling us all along people have show no signs of gratitude for them trying so hard to make known God's name. And now that it's sure from looking at the tetragramaton with the vowels that were already there. I still see people right here on Yahoo saying that's not gods name.
People are wicked to the core! They will resist using even the true name of God till the day that they die because they are wicked to the core.
Jesus. Philippians 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

According to the Bible at Psalms 83:18 identifies God as Jehovah.
Please see the Bible's answer to the question:
"How Many Names Does God Have?"

God has hundreds of names. He's not going to be upset what name you call him if your heart is right.

Elohim
Jesus. Philippians 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
"I am"
I have many names.
One my children call me. My wife calls me another. My co-workers call me another.
My old friends call me another.
The one my Mother gave me, and the one I use on this forum.
I have MANY names, but what is the value of a name?
It is for mankind to distinguish this from that. I think a GOD would answer to a name "it" respects.
Just like if you first met me and you called me "Sir", I would comply.
But if you first met me and you called me "******", I would not.
I am who I am.
And whatever you say I am, I am that ALSO, to you.
