WRT...Jehovah meaning “I AM”, I have read that it also means “the self-existent one”. Any thoughts?

If the verb used, hayah, is understood to mean not just existence but action or identity to become, in the future then, I will be or I will become would be its meaning.

How does one understand Moses’ question “Who shall I say sent me?”
