ZonkotheSane in tefillah (prayer), we use several other names, ie, a-do-noy (master, also how one pronounces yud-vuv-hay-vuv, y-v-h-v), You meant yud-hay-vuv-hay, y-h-v-h, right? sweatdrop . note - don't try to ponounce it guys, you're not supposed to xp . Elokaynu and the shem hayihud (yud-hay-vav-hay) have completely different meanings, which explain why its possible to see them one next to the other (and quite common actually).

(almost no one knows the "shem meforash").

There is the shem hayihud, and "elokim".
Elokim is a word used by all nations to describe their G-d, their lord. It is a word that is not used to describe only the one true got, but can be used to describe many gods, false gods, or describle a higher abillity of someone. Elokim can be altered to many forms, and it is not the word that describes the wonderfulness and awsomeness of hashem, because the term is not reserved for him.
Shem hayihud is a word that is used to describle G-d's awsomeness, it is used by the jewish nation alone, it cannot be altered in its form, and it describes the heavenly power of G-d, and cannot be used to describe the higher ability of another man, because G-d's name reaches far beyond that.
