These made up names. Just dang.
The Hebrew word shua means to bow or be brought low. If you add y-a-h to the front of that, you're literally saying "Yahweh is brought low"
The hebrew word hovah means "disaster" or "brought to a ruin". IF you had y-a-h to that to get yahovah, you're literally saing "Yahweh is brought to ruin."
YHVH means "the eternal One" or "I exist". When we play with the Names, we need to be very careful. The root of YHVH is havah which is a verb meaning "to become". His Name is a play on Exodus 3:14 whereh YHVH tells Moses His name is "I will be what I will be" or hayah asher hayah.

I like your analogy of the foreign dignitary. So much seems to go to motivation of the heart. Are we more focused on pleasing him in our actions and our heart then we are in trying to nail down the pronunciation of the name?

But there’s actually more evidence for this particular pronunciation than just Josephus. I myself never read about what Josephus said before coming to this conclusion about the pronunciation.
I simply looked at how the first three letters of Gods name was pronounced in other words like “YeshaYahu” (Isaiah- Yah saves) and it was easy to figure out the ending vowel after that.
Many many prophets have Gods name within their own and it is always pronounced “Yahu”.

, some of which result in words that are nonsense, not really words. There are some that do have meanings that are positive and some have meanings that are negative.

A quick search also revealed that their was a name in Scripture called "shua" that meant wealth.
