I'm with Judaism on this one. I think I AM is a far too simplistic name for something as articulate and ingenious as God. The term I AM just oversimplifies God and makes Him sound like a narcissist.

Hi Honza . . . I love all these names for what essentially cannot be named ! I guess, in my opinion I AM best suggests the nebulous quality of God who is essentially beyond anything we’ve ever experienced in the material world. I AM is the simple assertion that he exists without even trying to describe him.
