[Heb-NACO] Transliterating yud heh vav heh

Hi folks:

I'm cataloging a book right now that has the tetragrammaton in the title.

1) YHVH? This is what the record has
2) Yehovah? My preference
3) Yahveh? As good as any other
4) Or should we use a euphemism,e.g ha-Shem?

I'm not invested in this one and am agnostic as to the outcome, but which
form is preferred? The euphemism 'ha-Shem" and "Adonai" are already slotted
in the record as added title entries.
