The following names of G-d require special care due to their holiness:
- YHWH
- Adonai
- Ehye-Asher-Ehye
- Shaddai
- Elohim
- El
- Tzvaot
Other commonly used names are:
- Yah
- Elyon
- Shkhinah
- (Ha)Makom ("The Place")
- Shalom
Since the explicit name (Hebrew: "shem ha'meforash") of G-d cannot be uttered in everyday life, the most common substitutes are "Ha'shem", lit. "The Name", or "Ha'kadosh Baruch Hu", lit. "The Holy One Blessed Be He".
