What do you think about this 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica ?
That gives the reason why the name Jehovah was ommitted from the Bible.
Several centuries before the Christian era the name Jhvh had ceased to be commonly used by the Jews. Some of the later writers in the Old Testament employ the appeliative Elohim, God, prevailingly or exclusively: a collection of Psalms (Ps. xlii. lxxxiii.) was revised by an editor who changed the Jhvh of the authors into Elohim (see e.g. xlv. 7; xlviii. 10; 1. 7; ii. 14); observe also the frequency of "the Most High," the "God of Heaven," "King of Heaven," in Daniel, and of "Heaven" in First Maccabees. The oldest Greek versions (Septuagint), from the third century B.C., consistently use Κύριος, Lord, where the Hebrew has Jhvh, corresponding to the substitution of Adonay for Jhvh in reading the original; in books written in Greek in this period (e.g. Wisdom, 2 and 3 Maccabees), as in the New Testament, Κύριος takes the place of the name of God. Josephus, who as a priest knew the pronunciation of the name, declares that religion forbids him to divulge it; Philo calls it ineffable, and says that it is lawful for those only whose ears and tongues are purified by wisdom to hear and utter it in a holy place (that is, for priests in the Temple); and in another passage, commenting on Lev. xxiv. 55 seq.: "If any one, I do not say should blaspheme against the Lord of men and gods, but should even dare to utter his name unseasonably, let him expect the penalty of death."[2]

There is no evidence that the Tetragrammaton was changed to Elohim.
As is clear, G-d is referenced by many names in the Bible of which each one has special meaning.
Update:
Based on some of your comments I think I should clarify some things.
There are two aspects to this:
1) What is actually written in the Hebrew text?
2) How is the the Tetragrammaton pronounced?
As for #1, there is no evidence that the Tetragrammaton in the text to Elohim or other words. In fact, the Tetragrammaton exists in numerous places.
As for #2, yes, the Tetragrammaton is not pronounced by Jews as "Jehovah" but instead uses Adonai (literally Lord). And we acknowledge this is not the pronunciation. It was something that was reserved for the Cohen Gadol (High Priest).

Obviously the encyclopedia writers were not biblical scholars.
Yahweh and Jehovah are gentile constructs much like "Jesus". Yehovah is the name of God the Father, even Strong's got it right...

Notice what these Jewish Rabbis wrote:
A. Marmorstein, a rabbi, wrote in his book The Old Rabbinic Doctrine of God: “There was a time when this prohibition [of the use of the divine name] was entirely unknown among the Jews . . . Neither in Egypt, nor in Babylonia, did the Jews know or keep a law prohibiting the use of God’s name, the Tetragrammaton, in ordinary conversation or greetings. Yet, from the third century B.C.E. till the third century A.C.E. such a prohibition existed and was partly observed.” Not only was the use of the name allowed in earlier times but, as Dr. Cohen says: “There was a time when the free and open use of the Name even by the layman was advocated . . . It has been suggested that the recommendation was based on the desire to distinguish the Israelite from the [non-Jew].”
What, then, brought about the prohibition of the use of the divine name? Dr. Marmorstein answers: “Hellenistic [Greek-influenced] opposition to the religion of the Jews, the apostasy of the priests and nobles, introduced and established the rule not to pronounce the Tetragrammaton in the Sanctuary [temple in Jerusalem].” In their excessive zeal to avoid taking the divine name in vain, they completely suppressed its use in speech and subverted and diluted the identification of the true God. Under the combined pressure of religious opposition and apostasy, the divine name fell into disuse among the Jews.
For some 3,800 years from 4,000 BCE with the creation of Adam to the 3rd Century BCE, Jehovah's name was used by the Jews even in every day conversations.
The Foreword in the American Standard Version states:
“the American Revisers, after a careful consideration, were brought to the unanimous conviction that a Jewish superstition, which regarded the Divine Name as too sacred to be uttered, ought no longer to dominate in the English or any other version of the Old Testament, as it fortunately does not in the numerous versions made by modern missionaries. This Memorial Name, explained in Ex. iii. 14, 15, and emphasized as such over and over in the original text of the Old Testament, designates God as the personal God, as the covenant God, the God of revelation, the Deliverer, the Friend of his people;—not merely the abstractly ‘Eternal One’ of many French translations, but the ever living Helper of those who are in trouble. This personal name [Jehovah], with its wealth of sacred associations, is now restored to the place in the sacred text to which it has an unquestionable claim.”
Sadly the NASB translators reverted back to superstition. In effect, watering down and changing God's Word.

The article seems mostly correct
(because it is dated, several discoveries of the last 100 years are not taken into account)
and
does not do what you claim it does.
But it does point out
correctly
that in the New Testament "kyrios" (meaning "the Lord") is used
in place of the tetragrammaton
which
of course
is why Christians traditionally did so
and typically still do so.

Hmmm... wonder how long it will take the Trinitarians to report and remove this question.

That article clearly shows that the name of the true God is Jehovah and that it should appear in the Bible. But religious fanatics ommited it from the the copies of the Bible and replaced that sacred name with the titles Lord and God.

We know God through prayer, not by a book or by physical name, so I'd agree with Philo on that.
