Intact many don't even seem to be aware that God's name is Yahweh and that by saying god, your not taking anyone's name in vain
Just add that to the pile of things that the Xtians changed so that they would not be associated directly with the Jews - Like the commandment "Keep Holy the Sabbath" was changed to go to church on Sunday and give money!
Of course - in the olden days it was not unusual to refer to a person based on their profession - so a man who sewed clothes (A tailor) - would be called a Needleman.
And a person who could not do anything of value would be called a PRIEST.
