JEDP theory is fascinating on this subject. It argues that you can trace different authorship of certain portions of the Pentateuch by the different names for god.

It also helps explain (amongst other things) why the parable of Noah appears to disagree with itself from verse to verse about how many of each species of animal went into the ark (basically because the parable is two different texts mashed together).
