(Please forgive me for writing this in English; my written Dutch isn't all that good.)
The pronunciation of the four-letter name of G-d (Y and H and V and H) is unknown, absolutely unknown. Some Christians started pronouncing it the way you wrote it, but no Jew will ever pronounce that word the way you write it. When we talk about G-d (like in this topic) we say Hashem (which literally means "The Name") and during prayer and reading the Torah, when this name is written we say "Adonai", which can be translated as "Lord".
Any use of this word outside of prayer books and Torah books is absolutely forbidden.
I there ask you to please change this into "Hashem", the generally accepted way of writing and pronouncing G-d's name in the Jewish world when not praying or reading from the Torah.
Shalom,
