I am wondering if there is any manuscript evidence of the vowels assigned to
the tetragrammaton other than those of the massoretic text. Please no

How about the THEOPHORIC names? While the vowels assigned in the MT to the
tetragrameton are generally for )DONAY or ELOHIM, the vowels seem to be
retained the the Yahwistic names (at least sometimes).
