I'm a fan of simple meanings:

The existence of any Jew anywhere is proof of the Presence of God.

Besides, there's this:

A logo (abbreviation of logotype,[4] from Greek: λόγος logos "word" and τύπος typos "imprint") is a graphic mark, emblem, or symbol used to aid and promote public identification and recognition. It may be of an abstract or figurative design or include the text of the name it represents as in a wordmark.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logo

Jew (Yehudi):

יהודי

yud hei vav dalet yud

God (YHVH):

יהוה

yuh hei vav hei

The Maharal tells us that the design of the hei is comprised of a dalet and a yud. The dalet is composed of one horizontal line (signifying width) and another that is vertical (signifying height), which together represent the physical world, the world of materialism. The yud (the detached left leg) represents G-d, and thus spirituality. The Maharal teaches us that just as the dalet and the yud come together to form the hei, so, too, one has an obligation to imbue and sanctify the physical world with spirituality and G-dliness.

The wordmark of God, God's logo, the Divine Presence, the Shekhinah: "Jew":

יהודי
יהוה

A dalet plus a yud is the letter hei, but a lot of commentaries that say that the name of God is never mentioned in the Megillah. ?!

It would be funny if the "unpronounceable name" of God turns out to be something obvious like Yehudi, especially because it's the God-haters and deniers who can't stop talking about those... Jews.
