Essentially, it's "Yuhawah."

Yes, it's clearly from the Tetragrammaton/Yahweh/Yehowah, as we suspected months ago.

As I explained elsewhere, the "ch" in German is the [x], not the  [k] of English.

As for the kana ending in "hha", remember that terminal vowels are greatly reduced – if pronounced at all – in Japanese. For the same reason "ichi" is pronounced like each, the last kana is there to represent the fricative, not the vowel.
