It's usually a warning sign if a group insists on doing something that no one else is doing. Of course, the LC mindset is that they got something right that no one else does (the JW's think this too). LCers would be better off asking themselves the question of why no else is gravitating towards using the name 'Jehovah'. There is a reason after all.

As a big of a digression, the following is a scene from one of my favorite movies. I couldn't help but think of it when this topic of 'Jehovah' came up.

So Stupid! Both the film clip and the commercial preceeding it.

Guess that's why I never watch Sci-Fi. And now zeek hits on me for watching the History Channel too much.
