I believe that Yah, abbr. (Jehova) and Elohim meaning God plural. "El" is singular form, but together Elohim (believed to be the Trinity) more than one God. I believe that the names were not replaced but translated.
Answer 2:
None of the names of God in the Hebrew Bible were replaced or changed. The text of the Hebrew Bible has never varied.
Each name of God indicates one of the ways in which He relates to the world. And none of the names are used as plural, since all of the names are linked to singular verbs.
Lord in the bible means GOD , the supreme power.
El is Hebrew for a god, and Elohim is the plural, gods. However, the writer now known as the Elohist used Elohim in a singular context, or with a singular verb, to refer to the supreme God of Israel. Many English translations of the Bible also translate elohim, when used otherwise, as 'angels' in order to avoid polytheistic concepts.
The first person's name is Adam. (Elohim/God is a title not a name).
The word God in the Bible is translated from the word Elohim, it is used 224 times in Genesis.The Tetragrammaton (which is the four letter word YHWH) is Gods actual name. It is translated in various ways. Yahweh, Jehovah, LORD. It is in Genesis 153 times.
Assuming you meant "Love the Lord your God", it first appears Deut 6:5
Lord = Adonai (ה׳) God = Elohim (אלוקים)
Genesis 3:9 Then Yahweh Elohim (the Lord God) called to Adam and said to him, "Where are you?"
In many Bible translations, the name Jehovah is substituted with "Lord" or "God". There are various reasons why the divine name Jehovah is taken out and replaced with titles.

The word Jehovah/Yahweh (any variant of this) has never been used by Jews and is of Christian origin. The origin of this word comes from the Christian misunderstanding of the tetragrammaton that represents the true name of God used by Jews. In Hebrew, the tetragrammaton is spelled יהוה (YHVH). The vowels are lost. In Medieval times, Christians misunderstood a Jewish custom of pronouncing YHVH as Adonai, and merged the consonants of YHVH with the vowels of Adonai. Now, what about the word Elohim? Well, in the Hebrew Bible, there are 72 words used to refer to God. In reality, none of these 'names' are true names but rather descriptions of God that are contextual. The word elohim is a title given to great men, usually to judges due to their ability of reason. When the word Elohim is used to describe God, it is to highlight God's greatness such as when God was creating the world. The literal meaning of Elohim is "powerful ones". However, when referring to God, the plurality is taken in the context of a 'royal we'.
Elohim is a plural form for 'god'. In the Tanakh, when used with a singular verb or in a singular context, it also meant the God of Israel. Elohim later came to be regarded as one of many aspects of God.
