Name

A name is usually "an alphabetical grouping of letters that represents an individual for the purpose of identification".

"a word or set of words by which a person, animal, place, or thing is known, addressed, or referred to."

It can also be "The identifying characteristics which identify the spirit or nature of someone or something."

So doing something in the name of someone can mean doing it according to their "identifying characteristics". That means you would come with the same "identifying characteristics".

Luke 22:27 For whether [is] greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? [is] not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.

Luke 12:37 Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.

John 12:26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.

Praying in the name of Yahushua/Jesus does not mean saying the word "Yahushua" or "Jesus or (YHWH) "Yahweh" or "Jehovah" or "Yahuwah" in your prayer. It would mean praying with the same Character of the individual identified as Yahushua/Jesus.

It means that when you ask, appeal or apply to God the Father you are to have the same character, spirit or nature as Jesus, Yahushua, YWHW, etc. In other words don't bother praying to God if your character, spirit or nature is that of a commandment breaker, like a liar, a thief or someone that is covetous, vain, jealous, slothful, lustful, greedy or fearful.

1 John 2:4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
