I personally like being called by my real name and not something that is derogatory.

The "Je" in Greek is for the letter Y in Hebrew. I guess good intentions count for something if a person does not know any better. I would think that a person would prefer being called by their real name though.
I am familiar with all of this. I studied Biblical Hebrew. I am also aware of the Sacred Name Movement, which is full of confusion (mostly people who pretend to know Hebrew). I will continue to call the Messiah Jesus, and I will not feel guilty about it. Why? because He hasn't shown me that He has a problem with it.In case it went over your head, Y'shu is Jesus. And that is why I do not like to use the name Jesus.
Have a nice day.
Iesus is the short form of Iesous.In Greek it is Iesous, so again you are wrong...

Are you Greek? Do you call Joshua 'Iesous'?
You cannot be certain it is Yahwah. At best, you are guessing that that is the correct pronunciation.Besides me, have you heard any Christians say God's name is Yahwah?
The Hebrew language did not have an e vowel until after 200 AD. All scholars agree that the first name of God is Yah. There is the word Wah in Biblical Hebrew and Aramaic, but there is no Weh. There is no middle vowel between Yah and Wah, that would be one vowel to many. Originally the vowels (Sounds) were A I O U. Biblical Hebrew is not the same as Mishnaic Hebrew or Masoretic Hebrew. The Proto-Hebrew vowel system is reconstructed as /a aː oː i iː u uː/ (and possibly rare */eː/).You cannot be certain it is Yahwah. At best, you are guessing that that is the correct pronunciation.
The name of God (transliterated) is YHWH, otherwise known as the tetragrammaton. Some groups say YHVH, but from what I have learned, the vav is a modern thing.
By the way, most people would say Yahweh.
There is no proof that Yahwah is the correct pronunciation of YHWH. You are merely guessing that it is so; and because there is no proof, you can't be absolutely sure you are using the correct name for God. If you have proof, then show it to us.The Hebrew language did not have an e vowel until after 200 AD. All scholars agree that the first name of God is Yah.

I am speaking of Biblical Hebrew, not Modern Hebrew.
Bump.Dishonor His Name
For thousands of years the refusing to use a person's name has been a direct form of dishonor. Shortening the name, replacing the name, distorting the name, all are signs of dishonor.
Honorable Mention
An “honorable mention” is a title of distinction given to a person worthy of mention. Upon honoring the person their name is mentioned, so their name has a place of honor known among the people.
Malachi 1:6
“A son honors his father, and a slave his master. If I am a father, where is the honor due me? If I am a master, where is the respect due me?” says [the LORD / Yahwah] Almighty. “It is you priests who show contempt for my name. “But you ask, ‘How have we shown contempt for your name?’
