Why the answer is B, and why the others tempt you.
The divine name YHWH (I AM WHO I AM) in Exodus 3:14 conveys God's self-existence and eternal nature — He is not dependent on any other being for His existence. This name became the covenant name of God for Israel. The other attributes, while true of God, are not the primary theological meaning of this specific name.
