James Christian:
This discussion may be benefited by examining the B-Hebrew masculine noun that is generally rendered "name"; $M: the exact designation of ...; the "name" of brute animals (i.e. bear, noun); a river's "name"; a personal "name"; the reputation of ...; a byword, characteristic expression, metaphor, or proverb; name, as designation of God, specifically of YHWH (paraphrased from the BDB Lexicon of the OT).
According to the BDB Lexicon of the OT $M = "name" of the Hebrew Deity YHWH. The masculine noun $M is not used in regard to the plural masculine noun 'LHYM that can be referring to "rulers, judges, angels, a god, a goddess, gods, as well as God = the Hebrew Deity (paraphrased from the BDB Lexicon of the OT).
The context of the Genesis 1 thru 2:3 creation account appears to employ the plural masculine noun 'LHYM as an appellative or common noun that refers to the attributes of the Hebrew Deity. The plural masculine noun 'LHYM does not appear to be used as either "a title" or "a name".
