What's it called in English when you substitute a person's name for he/she??? Am halfway through my essay on Genesis Chapter 1. How very dull.

Yes, that's perfect.
By continually referring to God by his name, and not substituting it for a transvestite, it emphasizes the very notion of God, as if to reaffirm his existence.

I love Genesis. Phil Collins is a legend.
I didn't know he was a he/she though.
