The name Allah also denotes "assamad" ~ The Self Existing Eternal One(one of Allah's attributive names in the Quran) which is identical to the meaning of "Yhwh" which also denotes in Arabic "al-hayy" ~ The Living One (Ref. Arab. Txt. 2:255) and "Yuhyi" ~ He causes life or causes to exist (Ref. Arab. Txt. 57:2) which are all COGNATES of the hebrew word Yhwh according to Christian exergesis of the word
Where is all the information to support this claim?

As you know in Judaism they REJECT the Christian ideological concept of the tetragramaton (Yhwh), in which the common understanding of the name is merely a Christian perspective as far as the derivitive of the word.
I have no idea what you are talking about. So far, I have given you both Christian and Jewish sources, which explain in detail the understanding of the name, the root, and the meaning of the first giving of the name to Moses.
Whatever you have in your mind, it must be non-related to this subject.
Hmm. I wasnt specific here(My fault), The Jewish Kabalists have different beliefs to the Tetragrammaton as an incryption.

These interpretations is according to the Kabalah and Midrash

The double consonant "hh" (Hay Chirik) in "Yahh" when prolonged for the classical usage as Yahowah in which they are seperated become a regular Hay ~ "h" in Hebrew.
You can find many examples of hebrew words having the same classical character ending of "owah" or "oah" for classical Hyme when chanting in which the Waw/Vav consonant is a weak radical.
Could you provide a source for this? I don’t know what you mean by “double hei”. Where is this coming from? The name is Yod, Hei, Vav, Hei.
Yup I answered this in the fourth post above
Karaite wrote:It may sound similar, but that does not substantiate the claim. You have neither provided scholarly support for the supposed evolution, and so called “Hebrewization of the word”, which you claim.
It remains mute among scholars, also It is common sense due to the evolution of language also according to the Bible the name YHWH was known from since the time of Abraham.
Exodus 6
2 God also said to Moses, "I am the LORD . 3 I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob as God Almighty, [1] but by my name the LORD [2] I did not make myself known to them. [3] 4 I also established my covenant with them to give them the land of Canaan, where they lived as aliens.

6:3 Or Almighty, and by my name the LORD did I not let myself be known to them?

With the correction in the Translation in which verse 6:3 is a question to an affirmative answer. YHWH was known from since Abraham but Abraham did not speak hebrew which didnt exist at that time whereas the name Yhwh is a Hebrew word. When a language changes or evolves the form of words Change adn evolve as well. This is common reasoning and fact.

And as you know "Y" and double "ll" are interchangable with each other even in the semetic language that are dialectual.
Again, I require some verification of this proposition. Can you provide it?
You speak spanish how is "LL" pronounced in spanish ? Isnt it pronounced as "Y". It is called linguistics of Dialect. Do you think Hebrew was always Hebrew, no. As the language developed pronounciation of words also changed.
