Can you please stop quoting Wikipedia? It's not even a scholarly source.

"Many theologians explain that I am that I am is better translated I be that I be. The ancient Hebrew language does not have a past, present, or future tense. Instead, it has an imperfective aspect and perfective aspect as indicators of time, with no actual determined time."
 
 
 
Exodus 3:14 should read:-
 
"At this God said to Moses: "I SHALL PROVE TO BE WHAT I SHALL PROVE TO BE." And he added: "This is what you are to say to the sons of Israel, �I SHALL PROVE TO BE has sent me to YOU.�""-N.W.T.
 
The God of Moses never called himself "I AM"!

My First Name is YHWH, and My Last Name is Allah.
YHWH's unpronounceable, Thus not in Recitation.
With that Resolved now, Time to begin Digging.

YHWH Allah

I only read the OP (don't feel like to read 10 pages), and I am sure Allah is not a name. To me it is The God.

According to the Documentary Hypothesis, there are at least four different authors of the Pentateuch, that is called J, E, D, and P.

E, for instance, doesn't mention about YHWH until Exodus. In other words, according to E, the patriarchs like Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob didn't know about YHWH, since they call God as El or Elohim. That explains why Ishmael and Muhammaad didn't know about YHWH.

According to the Shapira Manuscript -that some believe is an older version of Deuteronomy- God is mostly called as Elohim Eloheinu, not Yahweh.
