Well, no one in particular. Perhaps saying "one" and not "you" would have been better.

Please explain to us all how your comment relates to the Vatican clarifying it's stance?

My apologies then... Nothing annoys me more then one people assume I need to study...considering scriptural study is my hobby.
Im curious as to why some Christians insist on using this name while others seem to forbid it...

Yahweh and Jehovah are two different English transcriptions of the non-vocalized Tetragammaton -- the four consonants standing for the ancient Hebrew name for God. Both Jews and Christians accept the name Yahweh as being God's Hebrew name, as it was preserved in the original consonantal Hebrew text.
The original Hebrew text was not vocalized, as YHWH was considered too sacred to pronounce. Instead, the name Adonai (my Lord) was substituted in reading. By the time a vowel system was invented, the Hebrews had forgotten how to pronounce YHWH, and so they substituted the vowels for Adonai, resulting in the name "Jehovah." This is the sixteenth century form of YHWH with “a,” “o” and “a” (the vowels from Adonai, “my Lord”) inserted between each consonant -- Latinizing the word, changing the “Y” and “W” to “J” and “V.” (Source)

Christianity originated at Pentecost 50 days after Passover. Catholicism was an invention of Rome after Theodocius I.

So the Vatican has now publicly finally proclaimed it -- The sitting Pope has been and always was God.
(Cues one of the resident crackpots to come in and convince us all that "YHWH" is pronounced "Jesus" )

Where did you learn Hebrew? Moses wasn't given a "Name", he was given a title. Ehjeh means "I AM" in Hebrew. So that's not God's Name, it's one of His many titles used throughout Scripture.

Where do you think that the Jeh in Jesus means and comes from?
