Well maybe. Or it could be that there is no "J" in Hebrew. So Jesus could not have been called"j"esus. And moreover, Jehovah can't be called "j"ehovah.

As a result it would be more accurate for the RcV to use Yahweh.

And in fact it would be best to use Elohim & Yahweh when those names are used in the scripture. The would be less confusing, in the end.
