The Ineffable Name in Theophoric Contexts

Non-Jewish person with a question.

Are there any (past or present) taboos or rules surrounding the use of the (abbreviated or syncopated) Divine Name when it is embedded within Hebrew personal names, whether spoken or written? Ie, Jehoshuah, Matityahu, Netanyahu, et cetera.

And whether the answer is yes or no, are there any works/citations of religious literature that discuss or debate this topic?

Many thanks.
