- The Jewish Encylopedia of 1901-1906 in the Article:Names Of God states:
If the explanation of the form above given be the true one,
the original pronunciation must have been Yahweh ( יַהְוֶה ) or Yahaweh ( יַהֲוֶה ).
From this the contracted form Jah or Yah ( יהּ ) is most readily explained, and also the forms Jeho or Yeho ( יַהְוְ = יְהַו = יְהוֹ ) and Jo or Yo ( יוֹ contracted from יְהוֹ ), which the word assumes in combination in the first part of compound names, and Yahu or Yah ( Hebrew font omitted ) in the second part of such names.
- In the Encyclopedia Britannica, 11th edition (New York: Encyclopedia Britannica, Inc., 1910-11, vol. 15, pp. 312, in the Article “JEHOVAH”) it states:

These various forms are perfectly regular if the divine name was Yahweh, and, taken altogether, they cannot be explained on any other hypothesis.
- In Chapter 1 of The Tetragrammaton and the Christian Greek Scriptures, under the heading: THE PRONUNCIATION OF GOD'S NAME it states:
The issue of pronunciation of God's name may best be summarized by a statement from Insight on the Scriptures, Volume 2, page 6:
Hebrew Scholars generally favor "Yahweh" as the most likely pronunciation.
They point out that the abbreviated form of the name is Yah (Jah in the Latinized form), as at Psalm 89:8 and in the expression Halelu-Yah (meaning "Praise Yah, you people!").
(Ps 104:35; 150:1,6)
Also, the forms Yehoh', Yoh, Yah, and Ya'hu, found in the Hebrew spelling of the names of Jehoshaphat, Joshaphat, Shephatiah, and others, can all be derived from Yahweh...Still, there is by no means unanimity among scholars on the subject, some favoring yet other pronunciations, such as "Yahuwa," "Yahuah," or "Yehuah.
