I'm probably not the best one to ask as I am not religious in that sense....

I submit that, if there were another particular name for the Christian god, you and I would both know what it is even though we are not religious because it would be in common use. The reason you and I don't know it is that "God" is the particular name for the Christian god, as I said.

I carpooled with a devout Christian who called her god "Yahweh." She even chose it for her license plate. The fact that that license plate was still available suggests to me that her specific name for the Christian deity is not in common use.
