Actually, in the American release of Godzilla: Resurgence, the human characters state that Godzilla's name is derived from the word Gojira, which, in the Resurgence-verse, does in-fact mean "incarnation of God".

So, in theory, Gojira no longer is just the merging of the Japanese versions of two words. It has an actual meaning now, which, given the long-standing history and legacy of the name, makes much sense.
