Certainly "G-d" is a name of the "Deity" in question, just as much as "God" is,
just as much as "Yahweh" or the Hebrew calligraphy for it is.  A name is a
name, it has the same referential power if everyone understands what you mean,
no matter how you spell it.  Why any god in His right mind would resist
being directly quoted or discussed is beyond me.
