Most strains of Christianity refer to their God as "God".
"Yahweh" is rooted in Judaism, hence why the name was worked into the Christian religion back at the turn of the eras (read: stolen from the Jews). I do not believe that "Yahweh" is a correct translation though. From what I understand, it is a mispronunciation of another word, of which the name eludes me at the moment.

I'd knock on wood, but my desk is particle board.
