The Encyclopedia Britannica of 1910-1911 states:
>>>
The name Jhvh enters into the composition of many names of persons in the
Old Testament,
either as the initial element, in the form Jeho- or Jo- (as in Jehoram,
Joram),
or as the final element in the form -jahu or -jah (as in Adonijahu,
Adonijah).
These various forms are perfectly regular if the divine name was Yahweh,
and, taken altogether, they cannot be explained on any other hypothesis.

>>>
Y:HOWYFQIYM
[i.e. transliterated as Jehoiakim in my NIVIHEOT]
is a Theophoric name found at I Chronicles 3:15
Has this Compound Hebrew name been created by adding the prefix YFH.
(via a holem waw)
to YFQIYM
and in the process the “qamets” in YFH.
has become the simple shewa in Y:HOWYFQIYM

Dear Dave,

The answer is yes. Just like in Yehonatan (Jonathan), Yehoram (Joram),
Yehoahaz and a dozen other names.
