It is my understanding that "Ha Shem" means "The Name" and was used as a reference for "God" by Jewish people. God was known by different names in years gone by but the name YHWH was His special name, His covenant name, which expressed the special relationship between Him and His special people. Because of a fear of "taking the name in vain" the name represented by the 4 Hebrew letters yod, heh, vav, heh was not pronounced and in time people forgot how it was actually pronounced many years ago. Instead they referred to Him as "Adonai" (Lord) or "Ha Shem" (The Name). The KJV uses LORD all in caps for the tetragrammaton (4 letter name of God). The ASV uses Jehovah. The Jerusalem Bible uses Yahweh.

God's covenant name, YHWH, was some times used in combination with suffixes such as YHWH-jireh (YHWH the Provider) or YHWH-rapha (YHWH our Healer). When it came time for YHWH to personally visit His people in a body of flesh, He came in the name of Yeshua or Iesous or Jesus which means YHWH-Savior. When we use the name Jesus in English or Yeshua or some other form in some other language, we are calling Him YHWH our Savior and that name, YESHUA, contains and includes all of the terms He associated with Himself in the Old Testament such as YHW-nissi (YHWH our banner), YHWH-roi (YHWH our Savior) etc.

In my old 1611 KJV, He is called Iesvs because the letter "J" was not in common use in the English language and the letter "u" was written like our letter "v".

I don't read, write, or speak Hebrew so if anything I have stated here is not accurate it is because of my limited knowledge.
