Wuuuuut? Shut the front door! GTFO!
Bible-based assertion or your own personal deduction? I'm familiar with the folklore stating that the knowledge and speaking of a being's true name gives one vast and terrible power over said individual; That's some old-school hocus-pocus magic right there. Pre-dates Christianity, for certain. Is that where you got this notion from?
Anyhow, if you believe this to be case, then what's up with your god, Drich? Why would an omnipotent being be so concerned with folks jacking his POWER, that he would deliberately see to his own Word being muddled and convoluted in an effort to prevent random MF's off of the street from wielding it?
Do you actually even believe him to be omnipotent? I don't see how your Biblical God character's actions can be interpreted as such. Been around the block the longest? Sure. Knows a lot, can do a lot; much, much more than anyone else. Sure, sure.
But, not everything. And not anything.
What's your take on that?
